This station at Palmer Mass was a union station, serving both the Boston & Albany, and Central Vermont. Were looking across Conrails ex B&A Boston Line. In 1986, passenger trains no longer stopped here, though the Boston section of the Lake Shore passed by. A few years hence, the Montrealer would pass on the CV after it was rerouted off the B&M Conn River line due to Guilfords inability to maintain the track to adequate standards for Amtrak. At the time of this photo, there was a restaurant/bar in the building. |
