Nostalgia & History > A Big Time New Haven Freight in Danbury, Conn., 1968Date: 10/05/15 21:58 A Big Time New Haven Freight in Danbury, Conn., 1968 Author: MartyBernard I've only been to Danbury a few times and never saw a freight train. But Roger Puta caught this on the Maybrook freight line on July 28, 1968. Even though it was a dull July day, the slide came back well. Too bad we are limited to 1000 pixels wide. That's NH 2520, a U25B.
Enjoy Roger's catch, Marty Bernard Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/05/15 22:03 by MartyBernard.

Witness two U25B's a C425 and an RS3.
