New England States Limited 1977-78 Winter The Danbury Branch
Published Quarterly. Front Cover: The late afternoon of May 20, 1961 was unusually busy in Danbury, Conn. The Northeastern Region of the N.M.R.A. was having its annual Spring Convention in nearby Stamford and included a fan trip from that point to Devon, thence over the Naugatuck and Maybrook lines to Danbury before returning to Stamford. At Danbury the passenger extra was held for Train #143 to clear on its trip from Pittsfield, Mass. to Grand Central. Thus our cover shows FL-9 #2017 on Train No. 143 at Danbury with some of the "fan trippers" to the left complete with camera bags. The unanswered question is what attracts the attention of both the engineer and fireman off to their left?
