Important Schedule Change – Effective April 22, 2025
Beginning Tuesday, April 22, 2025, select weekday CTrail Hartford Line and Amtrak trains will operate on a modified schedule, with some trains replaced by bus service. These adjustments are necessary to accommodate two major infrastructure improvement projects along the line.
What You Need to Know:
- Weekend train service will not be affected.
