	About Railroad Electrification; Steam & Electric Locomotives of the New Haven Railroad, Thomas J. Dodd Research ...
		The New Haven Railroad's achievement as a pioneer in main-line electrification began in 1903, when the New York State legislature forbade all steam locomotives from entering New York City after 1908 due to train wrecks in the Park Avenue Tunnel caused by low visibility from locomotive smoke and steam.
		Although the New Haven Railroad operated considerable low-voltage direct current trackage at this time, this system was considered inadequate for the operation of heavy trains over long distances at high speeds.
		The New Haven Railroad's New York area steam locomotive fleet was cascaded elsewhere on the system, being used in other areas served by the railroad.
