On the stop at Canaan
The MBTA special is southbound in Canaan, CT on Saturday, July 27 at 1626hrs.
Not long ago, the diamond here was still in place. For some reason, the Housatonic Railroad has removed it unfortunately ruining a piece of history.
The remnants of the track on the right was once the main line of The Central New England Railroad which went east/west from Springfield, MA and Hartford, CT to Maybrook, NY.
The last remnant of the line survived from here west to Lakeville, CT until 1965 under the New Haven Railroad.
