New Haven Railroad east end view of station building & platforms at Bridgeport, Connecticut 1-23-1924

            New Haven Railroad east end view of station building & platforms at Bridgeport, Connecticut 1-23-1924.  The track on the right is the eastbound main line platform track.  The photographer is standing on the roadway overpass bridge at the west end of the station.  You can see in the left side background a portion of the city downtown area.  On the far side platform you can see a baggage man performing his duties.  This station on a curve was always an interesting station to enter during the old days because of the expanded tracks at this location, and what might be seen when looking around.

This photo came from my New Haven Railroad photo collection and the photographers name was not provided.  Any credit for this photo must be provided to the original photographer.
