Pawtucket/Central Falls is a disused railroad station located in the Rhode Island cities of Pawtucket and Central Falls. The station was originally built in either 1915 or 1916 by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad as a replacement for two separate stations in both Pawtucket and Central Falls and was built over the tracks.
The station was served by New Haven Railroad trains, then later by MBTA Commuter Rail until February 20, 1981.
Famous quotes containing the words central and/or falls:
“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“A noble soul is not the one that can manage the highest flights but the one that rises very little and falls very little but always dwells in a free, resplendent atmosphere and altitude.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
