Viewing Album:  Providence & Worcester Train NH-1
 
By:Adam T
Dates:2/24/2006 - 11/3/2011
Album Info:Providence & Worcester local NH-1 works out of New Haven, Connecticut, serving a variety of customers in central and southern Connecticut. On the Middletown Branch, the sprawling Tilcon Connecticut quarry and Perma Treat Corporation (a company that treats railroad ties) are serviced. Primary Steel and MSR Brick receive cars along the Berlin Branch, and lumber distributor 7D Wholesale is located in Rocky Hill along what is left of the Valley Line. On the Portland Running Track, Midstate Recovery/Murphy Road Recycling had been a customer until its building collapsed after a devastating snowstorm in January 2011. Back in New Haven, Gateway Terminal receives gondolas of steel billets on the Belle Dock Running Track. Occasionally, NH-1 (or sometimes an NH-1X) will work customers along Amtrak's Northeast Corridor between New Haven and Old Saybrook or Groton and interchange with local NR-2 out of Plainfield.
