Bill the Pigeon Beats Trains on New Haven Line
A chocolate colored pigeon named Bill becomes the daily train companion on the Air Line division from city to Middleton. For three years he race races the first eastbound train to East Hampton at 8 51 each morning when late trains are met with a perch and a jump to Lyman Viaduct four miles away. Bill sometimes accompanies down freights and even escapes a hawk by clever dodges near Engineer Bennett. Old commuters and new travelers alike watch Bill as he weaves between stations from East Hampton to West Chester and back, earning rail workers’ affection and attention.
