Re: Housatonic Railroad Thread (Maybrook, Berkshire, Pittsfield)

 by NHV 669 ¦  Fri Apr 26, 2024 9:15 pm ¦  Forum: New England Railfan ¦  Topic: Housatonic Railroad Thread (Maybrook, Berkshire, Pittsfield) ¦  Replies: 867 ¦  Views: 193971

The Naugatuck Railroad doesn't have any transloads in Torrington, let alone any freight customers for that matter, their sole customer is Frost Bridge Transfer in Watertown. Not sure what relevance that has to the Housy, as their only interchange is with the B&E.

Before it was NS, it was Conrail; as I pointed out above, the D&H under CP held trackage rights over that line until 2015 when they gave it up due to a lack of traffic as filed with the STB. You do realize that, right? Given CP ownership of the D&H through Binghamton, it was more direct than...

There is ZERO rhyme or reason for CPKC to "invest" in a line they have no ownership of, especially when they filed to give up their trackage rights between Binghamton and Allentown to access NY/NJ from the west back in 2015 due to a lack of existing traffic. There is no "setting aside...

And to add to that, the NYK ship (Delphinus) has already departed the port, and is exiting the Bay of Fundy, with the Barcelona Express already approaching the bay just SW of Yarmouth, NS.

No it doesn't.... that's not what's being implied at all. There will always be a demand for a train ride in Conway, long after Swirk and Sullivan are done with it. It's far too big a draw to disappear, and regardless of how it's currently being run, equipment continues to be added to the fleet. What...

Mr. Norman, The tidal issues you mention have been debunked multiple times over the course of this thread; Saint John has been expanded to handle two ships at once and has already done so. There's currently an NYK ship docked, with three more (all three being CMA CGM/Hapag traffic) scheduled to arri...

What does the pandemic have to do with a lack of timeliness and safety culture? Or dirty equipment for that matter? How is Covid even remotely related to any of those things? I'm genuinely curious as to why you think there's any kind of correlation there...
