Mark Twain and George Cable were in New Haven, CT November 5, 1884 then
Orange, NJ November 6.  I assume they traveled by train.  I cannot find
a route between the two places.  In 1884, I can find only two methods
for a train to cross the Hudson River, the Maiden Lane Bridge at Albany
and the Communipaw Ferry, but the ferry does not seem to have any
connecting points with the New York New Haven railway line.

If there any railroad buffs on Twain-L, I'd appreciate help with this
question.
