OK three got answered (somewhat, see notes) but come on! This was the least active trivia ever.

Answers:

1. 1872
2. New York & New Haven (Ralph got this, #3 and #4 [for now])
3. Hartford & New Haven
4. 100+*
5. The CONSOLIDATED

* = About how many RR's, I just realized my list is incomplete - so I'll accept Ralph's 100+ for now. ;-)

Thanks for participating guys - I'll have do try something more interesting sometime. lol

Trivia - Fill in the Blanks
Posted by David_Telesha on Tuesday, December 27, 2005 8:20 PM
OK as I promised, and it is about the New Haven [:D]

Fill in the blanks on the following.

The New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad was formed in _____, by the merger of the ________ Railroad and the ________ Railroad; and eventually grew to include _____ different railroads - giving the NYNH&H the nickname, The _________.

First blank is a year
Second and third are railroads
Fourth is a number
Fifth is a word

Good luck.

P.S. I know its not as good as some, but you can't fault me for trying.[:p]

P.P.S. Paul3 and others, let the other folks have a chance, eh?
