I was engineer that day and after the scheduled trains were done I got permission to take 529 light engine south to Highland Jct at the north end of Waterbury - I was running and Noel was in the cab with me, and our mission was to locate the site where the Highland Jct tower once stood. Of course I offered Noel, who was an RMNE member, "the seat" so he got to run a former New Haven engine one more time. Maybe that was the final time he ran a locomotive - if it was it was an appropriate loco on an appropriate railroad line for him.^^ This.
