Yalesville to Wallingford

Let's continue our journey south on the Springfield Line. Previously, we have visited stations and industries between Hartford and Newington Jct., taken a closer look at Berlin, and inspected the town of Meriden. Today, our journey continues to Yalesville, small village a few miles south of Meriden, and then on to Wallingford, the next larger town along the line.

Wallingford is similar in size to Meriden, the NH railroad also cuts straight through it. The passenger station with its beautiful depot building is located almost in the center of town. A local center of industry, Wallingford has several metal manufacturing companies and a large chemical plant.
