Yesterday I rode the Amtrak shuttle between New Haven and Springfield and noticed a lot of construction activity around the Berlin station and the railroad bridge over Farmington Ave. Does anyone know if its railroad oriented, and if so, what its all about?
What I understand from close Amtrak contacts is that they are redoing the platform a the atation, rebuilding the bridge over Farmington Avenue and are going to replace the second track. at least in the vicinity of the station.
Perhaps this is partly due to the "anticipated" commuter rail project that had been talked about for the past year or more.
