[edit] Postcard picture of tunnel in Newtown, Conn.

I don't have the ability to crop pictures, or I would have cropped the postcard picture of the Newtown tunnel. Perhaps at some point in the future someone else can. Having the picture seems better than not having it. Noroton 16:26, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Metro North?

I had heard before that Metro-North Railroad owns the former New Haven trackage from MNRR's Hudson line (ex NY Central at Beacon), to the NY State line (or maybe the Harlem line), and it was only the part east of there that's the Housatonic. The Metro-North Railroad page claims this "Beacon Line" as its own. While I know MNRR has at least trackage rights, the exact ownership of this needs to be clarified between these two pages.

The article at Beacon Line mentions ownership by Metro North. Ownership in Connecitcut seems to be more confused based on articles on Wikipedia. Some lines may be owned by ConnDOT with operation by Metro-North but some articles assert owner ship by Metro-North. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 03:40, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
