The Waterbury Republican/American has completed a book titled: "The
Naugatuck River Flood of '55".
This book has very interesting coverage of the terrible floods around the
Waterbury and Naugatuck Valley areas of Connecticut in August, 1955.
The book is available through the NHRHTA websight.

Here is a link: www.nhrhta.org

I have made up two pages of notes to this book regarding specific railroad
locations and a brief description. If you purchase this book through
NHRHTA, one is supposed to be included with your book.
If you have already purchased this book, send me an E-MAIL and I will
E-MAIL one back to you.
I do not want my E-MAIL addressed disclosed on here, please.
