The Danbury Railway Museum has an arrangement with Western Connecticut State University's photography professors which gives their students free admission when they are there for a class assignment. Up until yesterday, the students come in on their own, one or two at a time.

On September 28, 2005, for the first time, we had an entire class and their professor come as a group. I had the honor of being their host and guide. Naturally, I took a few pictures of my own.
