I think there is a good possibility that it was one of the more secondary
passenger trains that operated on the B. & A. during the 50's. I think two
RS units would drag a reasonable size train through the Berkshires as it
was not really a high speed railroad.
After the North Adams trains came off, it is most likely that all of the
Harlem trains terminated or originated at Chatham. At least that is what
the timetables of the period indicate.
