Arlington station (Lexington Branch)

Arlington station is a former railway station located in Arlington, Massachusetts, on the Lexington Branch of the Boston and Maine Railroad. Originally serving as a key transportation hub for the town, the station facilitated passenger and freight service connecting Arlington to Boston and surrounding communities.

The station building, dating back to the mid-19th century, served as a vital link for commuters, businesses, and residents. Its architectural style reflected the prevalent railway architecture of the period. The Lexington Branch itself played a significant role in the economic and social development of Arlington.

Passenger service on the Lexington Branch, including stops at Arlington station, declined throughout the 20th century, eventually leading to its discontinuation. The station building may still exist, potentially repurposed for other uses, although details on its current status would require additional research. The former rail line may now be used as a recreational path.
