| Follow a new railroad into the Adirondack Mountains of New York State. They run tourist trains, dinner trains, and even a ski train from Saratoga to North Creek. They want to reactivate the railroad to a mine that was closed over 20 years ago. New technology and a new attitude maybe just the right combination. | |

RPO's on the New Haven Railroad |
|
In the New Haven ETT's there was a symbol that looked like an exclamation
mark; i.e. "!". This symbol goes back to the days of RPO's (Railway Post Offices)
on passenger trains and indicated where mail would either be thrown from the
train (in pouches, of course) to an awaiting local mail carrier and at the same time
picked up from a wooden stand along side the track in which the mail pouch would be
suspended to enable the hook (which would be pushed out in place near the door of
the mail car by one of the attendants) to snag the pouch and be brought inside
the car for sorting of the contents. This symbol could be found next to stations
such as Lime Rock, Cornwall Bridge, Redding, Georgetown and Cannondale on
the Berkshire. Unfortunately, it all came to a screeching halt in early
1960 when the U.S. Post Office yanked the service and turned most of the mail
handling over to trucks.
The Berkshire Line's RPO was the first one on the New Haven to be discontinued --- other than those routes on which RPO service had ceased because passenger service ceased, including routes such as Waterbury-Winsted (1958), Hartford-Boston (1955), Boston-Cape Cod, and the other old Colony routes (1959). The final postmark was January 8, 1960; and this was the event that led the NH to downgrade all but the weekend trains to RDC's, since passenger counts on all the other runs no longer justified more than this single coach. The Pittsfield-Stamford RPO route was discontinued so early because the scheduling of trains was totally "out of sync" with the needs of mail service. For RPO service to be viable there would have to have been a 6:00 PM or later departure from Pittsfield daily; and a 7:00 AM or earlier arrival at Pittsfield!!! No schedule even close to that existed or was worth considering. |

Railroad Station at Collinsville, ConnecticutThe Central New England Railway (formerly Connecticut and Western) came from Hartford Ct. via Tariffville and Simsbury to the Farmington River in Canton, where it's only branch backed down to the station in Collinsville. It then proceeded west through Winsted, Norfolk and Canaan, Ct. to New York State. The Collinsville branch of the Canal Line of the New Haven Railroad went on to New Hartford, where there was a turntable so they could reverse direction. See another picture of the Collinsville station. An old postcard purchased from Charlie Gunn |

ec-bp.com The Forum for Supply Chain Integration
ec-bp was established in 2005 as the advocate for lowering the barriers to the adoption of EDI, and our email newsletter has been published every month since that time. Our focus has expanded beyond EDI to encompas the full gamut of supply chain practices and technologies. In addition, our readership has grown to become the largest of any similarly focused publication, and has expanded to include more than 90,000 professionals involved in nearly every aspect of the supply chain. Today’s supply chain is more than simple transport of EDI documents. The complexity of maintaining compliance with trading partners, managing the ever increasing amount of data, and analyzing that data to drive constant improvement in processes and service take supply chain professionals far beyond the basics of mapping EDI documents. |
