Pittsfield passenger stations

In November 1960, the New Haven moved its Pittsfield, MA passenger station from the Boston & Albany station to a refurbished NH freight station until the NH went into the Penn Central. After the merger, did the Berkshire branch passenger trains move back to the former B&A station?

After the Penn Central takeover of the New Haven Railroad the two round
trips a week to Pittsfield still continued to use the New Haven facility which
was in one end of the freight house.
This was a full facility with rest rooms, ticket office, waiting room and a
platform that held about three cars.
