High Street Junction Station was a train depot built in 1886 by the Hartford & Connecticut Western (which became C.N.E. in 1900). It is one of the few remaining stations from this time period in existence. The historic depot sits at the Dyer Avenue end of the Collinsville Pollen Trail near Allen Place and Maple Avenue. In the 1920s it was located in the center of a track wye (triangular junction), enabling trains traveling in either direction to back down to the Collinsville center passenger station (at Bridge St. and River St.).

Saving and preserving High Street Junction has been a topic of interest among local activists for more than two decades. Click here for more information.
