The New Haven project was initiated with federal support and participation to meet the urgent threat of disruption in the indispensable rail service between New Haven, Conn., and New York City. In July 1961, the railraod went into bankruptcy, following years of increasing costs, declining freight revenues and years of deficit operations. In early 1965 court-appointed trustees sought to curtail commuter service, including the elimination of service at four key stations in Westchester County, New York. The demonstration project stayed the curtailment while studies determined the measures that would be necessary to change the railroad into a modern transportation route. (Author)
