New Haven Railroad Union Station platform view to the north of the Springfield Line at Hartford, Connecticut, 1966

            New Haven Railroad Union Station platform view to the north of the Springfield Line at Hartford, Connecticut, 1966.  The track on the right heads to Springfield, Massachusetts and the track on the left heads to New Haven, Connecticut.  There are two additional tracks beyond the left side of the shown deck bridge that are on anothe deck bridge that are also platform tracks which connect the Highland Division to the Midland Division.  Today only the track on the left survives for two way operation and it almost seems silly in my opinion, since most of the line coming into Hartford from the south is new newly double tracked.  A good portion of the line departing Hartford to the north is double tracked to just a few miles south of Springfield for the new CT Hartford Line commuter services.

This photo came from the Internet and the photographers name is Dane HG Malcom.
