The story of the rebirth of Springfield’s Union Station was a 40-year saga that began with a promise to save a landmark that was teetering on the brink of extinction. On December 19, 1926, an estimated 30,000 people toured Opening Day of Union Station. The new facility with its gleaming terrazzo floors, had a restaurant, lunch counter, barbershop, shoeshine parlor and small shops to service hundreds of daily passengers who boarded up to 130 trains every 24 hours. The reconstruction of Union Station lasted four years and one month finishing in 2016. The great hall was gutted to the bare walls and rebuilt. The historic clock that hung at the entrance to the tunnel since the building opened, to a wooden train schedule board and 90-year-old baggage carts the original Terrazzo floors were all preserved. In addition to the train station there is an intermodal transportation center with local and long-distance buses, a new parking garage, office, retail and restaurant space.

I visited the Union Station in Springfield MA again recently, for the first time since the COVID-19 crisis began. I wanted to update my thoughts and impressions of the place and see how they were handling things. I'm happy to report that the station continues to be convenient and welcoming for all travelers by train, city bus and long-distance bus lines. They are taking appropriate measures to prevent the spread of disease, including requiring masks and allowing only ticketed passengers into the main concourse. They also are blocking off seats so you will not be too close to the other people. Benches are off-limits for now. Dunkin remains open as well as the convenience store where you can get all kinds of snack items. You can also purchase tickets from either ticket counters or machines located on the property. You can now also buy tickets through apps from Amtrak, CTrail and now even PVTA (local bus service) as well as Peter Pan and Greyhound. I recommend this place to all travelers. Clean and safe and taking proper precautions in this time of pandemic.

Springfield Pedicab is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to move around Downtown Springfield, Ma. The rides takes you from Union Station to the south end. The best thing about is that you can have a small talk with the driver while enjoy the beautiful outdoors.The drivers are very well knowledge.
