Last night, I saw through the woods a remain of an old spur off of the Springfield line, just south of Newington Junction. It would have departed the track from a switch facing south and then curves northeast, paralleling Alumni Road. I was just wondering if anyone knew what business this spur served and when it was last in service. You can see the remains fairly clearly on Bing Maps here:

Although you can't make the spur out on this map, you can see that there is active construction now on what was once a wooded lot, and where the old spur may have traveled.
