In 1958 several Boston-area chambers of commerce teamed up with a number of New Haven Railroad unions to produce and distribute this pamphlet in an effort to generate political support to continue the state subsidies to maintain passenger train service over the Old Colony Lines in southeastern Massachusetts. The pamphlet contains a number of arguments for keeping the trains running as well as contact information for state senators and state representatives located in the areas served by Old Colony Line trains. Ultimately, the letter-writing campaign failed as the subsidy payments were terminated and the Old Colony passenger service was abolished at the end of June 1959. This item is from the collection of Marc Frattasio.
