New York, Westchester and Boston Railway Company : 1906-1946

The New York, Westchester & Boston Railway was a high-speed electric commuter railroad that was built ahead of its time. This 21-mile interurban railway served the bucolic suburbs of Westchester County from an out-of-the-way terminal at Harlem River, in the Bronx. Built and controlled by the New Haven, economics and politics would see this line removed from the landscape just before its true value could be realized. Author Robert A. Bang guides you through this journey on Westchester County's "forgotten railroad" with many never-before-published photographs and illustrations.Bang, Robert A. is the author of 'New York, Westchester and Boston Railway Company : 1906-1946', published 2004 under ISBN 9780976279716 and ISBN 0976279711.
