“Choosing the Path That Is Green” will be delivered by activist, community economist, author and member of the Ojibwe Nation of the Anishinaabe peoples Winona LaDuke.
Passenger trains were an important part of southern Berkshire County’s transportation infrastructure for a number of years. There were as many as six round trips per day to New York City through Danbury at the beginning of the 20th century, and the railroads still ran two round trips per day into the 1960s.
