Fred G Posted January 16, 2010 Share #1 Posted January 16, 2010 After my NYC plan fell apart I ran down the coast a bit to catch trains at Greens Farms, a station I don't fan much at, but do enjoy when I do.

metsfan Posted January 16, 2010 Share #6 Posted January 16, 2010 Very cool! Whereabouts is this station? Those cat towers are very interesting, how old are they? Interesting that it's 4 tracks when a lot of the NH trackage is 2x tracks. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH line is 4 tracks all the way up to NH and a little beyond out to Mill River Junction. How come you thought it was 2? (just curious) Love the shot of 2008 Fred!

(just curious) In Rhode Island it's 2 as far as i've seen, and by new haven i mean NYNH&H which used to connect boston & NY. :cool: - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred G Posted January 17, 2010 Author Share #11 Posted January 17, 2010 Hi When you see those old school cat structures, that means New Haven between NHV and points west, including the Hell Gate line south of New Rochelle. The line was built in pieces but it was 4 tracks between New Haven and Woodlawn Junction. East of New Haven it was 2 tracks going to Hartford and another 2 going to New London. They split up just before Cedar Hill Yard and northeast of MILL. As a bit of Trivia, when A.C. Gilbert of New Haven saw those cat structures being built he was inspired to create the Erector Set.
