That is part of the old Hew Haven's Maybrook line. It is now owned by the Housatonic RR. The Housatonic owns the line from the NY state border east to Derby Junction. The line is basically OOS from Botsford thru the Indian Wells SP to Derby Jct. although they ran some kind of movement not to long ago. The HRRC let the line go to pot as P&W had trackage rights through there to run their stone trains to Danbury from Cedar Hill but that hasn't happened in quite a few years because of the track conditions.
