OK, we're wandering WAY off topic here, but I have to gently correct: you are confusing two distinguished preserved trolley lines, both in Connecticut. The Connecticut Trolley meusum (CERA)is in Warehouse Point, near Hartford; the Shore Line Trolley Museum (BERA) is in East Haven, near New Haven. It's the East Haven line that has the salt marsh ROW. However, both museums operate on genuine original Connecticut Company interurban ROWs. Like CATS, I believe the East Haven Line was in fact never taken up at all.
