The New York, New Haven & Harford Railroad's
New York Maybrook Terminal was the L&NE's eastern
terminus. The facility had been erected by the NYNH&H during 1912 and replaced a smaller interchange yard at
Campbell Hall. Maybrook was also the western terminus of the NYNH&H
and the eastern terminus of the Lehigh & Hudson River Railway. It was
not uncommon to see equipment from the CNJ
(running out time on the L&HR) and the ERIE Railroad at
Maybrook. Prior to the destruction of the railroad bridge across the
Hudson River at Poughkeepsie, Maybrook was hailed as the rail Gateway to
New England. In this view one of the L&HR huge 90 class 2-8-0s sits in the
company of a NYNY&H ALCO FA-FB-FA lash-up.
