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.
