I remember passing through Kent, CT, sometime in the mid-1980s with my parents... and some group was offering "train rides" which I realized years later was really a speeder ride (passengers rode in custom built trailers). The ride started just north of the grade crossing by the station, and maybe the ride was 1 mile or so. I remember the track was overgrown and in rough shape- I assume this was before HRRC was operating this segment. Tickets were sold from a temporary ticket booth set up next to the grade crossing.
Does anyone else remember these track car rides, and which organization was running them?
