| On yet another dark and dreary winter morning #207 departs White Plains, NY pushing train #932 at 8:15 AM on 3/7/2005. This weekday commuter express originates at Wassaic, NY, the furthest station on what remains today of the New York Central Railroad's old Harlem Division. Its next stop will be Harlem-125th Street. The Harlem Line once continued to Chatham, NY and connected with the Boston & Albany, making it possible to travel from White Plains northward to just about anywhere! The old White Plains Station, the NYC RR, and the rails north of Wassaic "disappeared into railroad blues" a long, long time ago.
