Yet they poured what today would be billions into the NY, Westchester and Back to compete with their host railroad into GCT in that railroad's backyard. I'm not sure which was more foolish, the cessation of electrification at New Haven back in the 1910s as they created the NYW&B, or McGinnis' idiotic dismantling of the electrified branch lines half a century later while he sought to provide a one-seat ride between GCT and Boston without considering electrification.

Essentially Amtrak undid the New Haven's grave blunder nearly a century on when they completed the electrification to Boston South Station.
