The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, generally simply called the New Haven Railroad, was formed from the merger of many different smaller lines in New England, USA. For many years, they enjoyed profound success and were blessed with a plethora of lucrative routes in their network right from the beginning, However, over time the railroad would begin to struggle. Even after recovering from their bankruptcy after WWII, they found themselves spiraling out-of-control due to mismanagement and a general inability of their owners to actually run a railway at all.

Founded by the merger of the New York and New Haven and Hartford and New Haven railroads, the company had near-total dominance of railroad traffic in Southern New England for the first half of the 20th century."
