Maybrook, NY...
This sleepy little town 60 miles north of New York City was once the only all-rail
gateway between Southern New England and the west. Served by six class one railroads,
Maybrook was a very busy place with close to forty regularly scheduled trains and
numerous extras and locals as late as the late 1950's. That is, until abandonments,
mergers and finally a fire that closed the Penn Central (New Haven) bridge over the
Hudson River at Poughkeepsie effectively ended Maybrooks rein as a major gateway.
Rich Shirey has created a back-dated version of his popular Lehigh & Hudson River
Route,
called 1940s L&HR. In honor of Richs new route, BLW/ZT has created a set of
locomotives
and rolling stock for the six roads that called on Maybrook. This set will be used to
create multiple freight activities for the 1940s L&HR. The diesels and cars in the set
have been created to match the late 40s to mid 50s time frame.
