Waterbury Tower. BERX PL-1 is headed back to Plainville, Connecticut with 18 loaded cares. In the background, the Waterbury, Connecticut clock tower, a copy of the famous Siena, Italy tower in the city center, rises above the scene. On the afternoon of Tuesday, October 17, 2023, Genesee & Wyoming's Berkshire and Eastern Railroad (Formerly Pan Am Southern) PL-1 brought down 28 empty cars for the Naugatuck Railroad Freight and returned with 18 loads. The purchase of Pan Am Railways by CSX and subsequent division of assets and delegation of routes brought the Berkshire & Eastern Railroad into existence to operate lines separated out from CSX and Norfolk Southern operations. The Naugatuck Railroad, operator of this former Boston & Maine and originally New Haven Railroad line, has been operating Torrington Secondary with tourist passenger service since 1996 and added regular revenue freight to its portfolio in recent years.
