Rail yard in Connecticut to help enhance East Coast train operations

Electrical installations for the New Haven Rail Yard and Diesel Storage Yard have been completed, moving the project closer to completion. Wayne J. Griffin Electric Inc. provided electrical services, installing new yard lighting systems to illuminate three non-electrified tracks and four turnouts.

Part of the Rail Yard Facilities Improvement program, the rail yard project increases train operations and services to accommodate future business expansions. When construction is completed, the facility will comprise storage, dispatch, inspection, maintenance, and cleaning space over 70 acres. O&G Industries Inc. and PB Americas Inc. provided construction and architectural services.
