Are there any plans of rebuilding that currently unused trackbed at Hartford
for the New Haven-Hartford commuter service?
When viewed from the I-84 elevated roadway,it was hard to figure out
there was a 3rd track at the station.
(I-84 swings right heading east to the I-91 interchange)

Just saw something about HDR photography in Trainorders so looked it up on the internet. Now I know a bit about it so I will try to learn when to use it and not to be used.
Thanks for giving me a look at the latest in photography (for me anyway).

It’s odd, but the station appears much larger in the old photos than it does now. Is that just an illusion caused by the peaked roof?

Emily. I have been wanting to ask you how you add the oil painted feature to some of your photos. They take me by surprise sometimes but I really like them.
As always, thank you for what you are doing to keep railroads alive, some of us still have them in our hearts.
