The newsletter aims to update you with recent key developments which have taken place and to inform you of forthcoming events and opportunities to become involved. Like you, I look forward to the day, hopefully in the not too distant future when wheels will be rolling over the viaduct again as this magnificent piece of engineering is brought back into use as a walking and cycling trail. The community is rightly proud of this majestic example of our industrial heritage. There is only one other viaduct like Bennerley in the country so it really is a local and national treasure.

  • Waterbury Train Station Visual Inspection Report January 2007
    WATERBURY TRAIN STATION VISUAL INSPECTION REPORT January 2007 Prepared by the Bureau of Public Transportation Connecticut Department of Transportation Waterbury Train Station Visual Inspection Report January 2007 Overview: The Waterbury Train Station is located near the city’s central business district. Adjacent to the facility is the old Union Station, now owned and occupied by the Waterbury Republican newspaper. Its 245-foot bell tower provides a landmark for locating the station. Using local roads to access the facility is not as easy due to a lack of trailblazing. Upon arriving at the station, one may have trouble locating the parking lot entrance, which is located several hundred feet south. A station sign has been placed at the entrance. The drive is partially obscured by a bank building and its poorly situated exit, which is only several feet from the parking lot driveway. The station itself consists of a short high- level platform, a ramp, two shelters and a parking lot. The station area is clean with only an occasional tossed item. However, the area across from the platform consists of abandoned tracks and railroad debris. The shelters are clean with benches. A recycling bin is located next to the shelters. Between the station and Meadow Street are an abandoned parking structure and vacant office building. The old driveway behind the platform is barricaded against use by commuters. A kiosk is situated at the north end of the platform.

  • April/May 2010 No. 3 from West Hallam to Canada… and a Titanic Victim!
    Photo: John James Borebank. April/May 2010 No. 3 From West Hallam to Canada… and a Titanic victim! Born in 1842 in West Hallam, James Borebank was the son of Benjamin Borebank, farmer and his wife Elizabeth. He had two sisters, Ann and Frances who married a pair of brothers who lived literally next door, the sons of Francis Martin, licensee of the Punch Bowl Inn West Hallam. James married on Boxing Day 1866 but sadly his wife Caroline died 13 days later on 08 January 1867. James married again 18 June 1868 to Sarah Milnes of Ockbrook. James and Sarah had seven children born between 1870 and 1881 of which three died in infancy. In 1870 on the death of his father James succeeded to the tenancy of the farm. The 1871 census shows James as farming 96 acres but by 1881 this was down to 9 acres. Giving up farming the family moved to Ilkeston taking on the tenancy of the “Prince of Wales” inn on Bath St. (pg 16 “From Bottom to Top of Town” published by the Society shows the “Prince of Wales” inn: the site is now occupied by Heron Frozen foods.) Sarah died in 1884. Some time between 1885 and 1887 James migrated to Toronto Canada taking 3 children (Frederick, Annie and Hannah) with him but not his eldest son John James who stayed in Ilkeston. James worked for the Toronto Brewing and Malting Company and by 1890 was a brewer. In 1888, James married again to Margaret Ann Leech and had another three children.
