The Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company Car Barn was located in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The building was built in 1910 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 3, 1987. The building served as the principal repair and storage facility for the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company which provided Bridgeport's streetcar service in the early 20th century. The building became the Bridgeport Public Works Department garage but was demolished to make way for the construction of the Connecticut Superior Court Juvenile facility.
