The only remaining building of the Rahway Valley
Railroad is the Springfield
Station. Constructed in 1905/6 while the
railroad was being extended to Summit, the station was the only railroad
passenger depot ever constructed in Springfield, NJ. Serving as a
passenger station until just after World War I, the station then became an
office for a Freight Agent who was posted here.
After the railroad closed in 1992 the station eventually
went through a sleu of owners before finally becoming Hecht Family
Chiropractic, which it houses today.
