Terry's All Gold is a popular brand of luxurious dark chocolate assortment, owned by Terry's of York (now Kraft Foods). This particular brand chocolate assortment was advertised in Britain, certainly during the 1970's and 1980's, on the Independent Television (ITV) channel, and typically featured a sophisticated, beautiful woman receiving "All Gold" as a gift from her husband.

Together Jon the Baptist and Chuck E’s collaborations have been released by Future Sound Recordings owned by the Trance Generators in Italy, and Chuck-E's own Intolerance imprint.

Branford Steam Railroad

Branford Steam Railroad

Overview
Headquarters	North Branford, Connecticut
Reporting mark	BRFD
Locale	Connecticut
Dates of operation	1903–present
Technical
Length	6.2 miles

Branford Steam Railroad (BRFD) is an industrial railroad serving the Tilcon Connecticut stone quarry in North Branford, Connecticut in the United States. It exchanges freight with the Providence and Worcester Railroad and with the Buchanon Marine Company.

History

Louis A. Fisk was a politically connected businessman from Branford, Connecticut who had by the 1890s built a trotting park for horses called the Branford Driving Park. To attract more visitors Fisk built a three mile long Damascus Railway that offered connections with the Shore Line Division of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad. In 1900 the creation of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission of New York and New Jersey forced the closing of basalt quarries along the Hudson River. This led to an increased demand for stone from Connecticut quarries. Louis Fisk would eventually open a quarry on Totoket Mountain in North Branford.

On March 19, 1903, Fisk obtained authorization from the Connecticut General Assembly to incorporate the Branford Steam Railroad in order to take over the property of and succeed the Damascus Railway. At the time the name "Steam Railroad" was used to distinguish the new Railroad from the nearby Branford Electric Railway which was a separate streetcar system.

By April 29, 1909, Fisk obtained authority from the General Assembly for for the Branford Steam Railroad to lay additional tracks southward to a dock he owned at Juniper Point on Long Island Sound.

In 1914, owners of the property incorporated the New Haven Trap Rock Company and opened the quarry for business under that name. Within a few years members of the New Haven Blakeslee family, who ran the C.W. Blakeslee and Sons construction firm that had originally started in 1844, were running the New Haven Trap Rock Company and Fisk was no longer involved with the quarry. The quarry company was the primary customer of the Branford Steam Railroad. Trap rock from the quarry was used for various construction projects including road paving, building foundations, and railroad ballast. The histories of both companies were closely tied with one another.

At the height of steam operations there were, within the 300+ acre quarry complex, a set of four to six small (15-ton) 0-4-0T saddletank locomotives moving the stone laden gondola cars around. They supplied steam shovels with empty cars and moved loaded cars to the crusher. In addition there were two heavier (40-ton) 0-4-0T saddletank locomotives to move the loads of crushed rock down the 6.2 miles of railroad either to Juniper Point for loading into barges or to exchange with the New Haven Railroad.

In 1923 the Angelo Tomasso company started working in Connecticut, but was not yet affiliated with the North Branford quarry or the Branford Steam Railroad. In 1935 the New Haven Trap Rock Company merged with the Connecticut Quarries Company, and in February of that year the management reincorporated the company under the New Haven Trap Rock Company name. The merger expanded the scope of quarry activities of the comany such that it operated six Connecticut quarries, located in Cheshire, Granby, Middlefield, New Britain, and Rocky Hill, as well as at North Branford. At North Branford, meanwhile, the company removed its quarry trackage and disposed of the smaller 15-ton quarry locomotives, but continued shipping stone out of the quarry on the Branford Steam road.

In 1956 the company purchased two diesel GE 45-ton switchers to handle the duty of pulling stone from the North Branford crusher. Although the steam locomotives were retained for a few years after that to perform yard switching duties the era of steam on the Branford Steam Railroad was nearing an end. In January 1960 the company's third diesel, No. 5, a 44-ton Road switcher that was originally New York, New Haven and Hartford No. 0813, was purchased.

Just as steam locomotives gave way to diesels on the line in the 1950s so too did the rolling stock change as the side-dump gondola cars gave way to triple-bay hopper cars lettered for the New Haven Trap Rock Company. Whereas the steam locomotives had been lettered for the same company (e.g. steam locomotive No. 43 carried the words "N.H. Trap Rock Co." on her saddle tank), some of the new diesels ironically carried the lettering of "The Branford Steam Railroad" despite the fact that it no longer was a steam railroad.

In the late 1960s or early 1970s the New Haven Trap Rock Company was sold to the Ashland Paving and Construction division of Ashland Inc. then of Ashland, Kentucky. By the time of the sale the North Branford quarry was considered the world's largest single-face trap rock quarry with a frontage of 1-1/4 miles and was Connecticut's largest supplier of crushed stone.

Thomas Tilling Ltd. purchased the construction group of Ashland in 1979. Tomasso became known as Tilcon Tomasso, a division of Tilcon Warren, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of Tilling Ltd. In 1984 Tilcon Inc. was acquired by the British Tire and Rubber Company. The company's name was changed to Tilcon Connecticut in 1990. In 1996 Tilcon Connecticut was sold to CRH plc of Dublin, Ireland.

Disposition

The Branford Steam Railroad continues to operate today carrying quarried stone to exchange with the Providence and Worcester Railroad as well as to Buchanon Marine barges at Juniper Point. Fisk's prescience in choosing a name to distinguish his freight railroad from the Branford Electric Railway seems almost humourous today in that the organization that operates the Shore Line Trolley Museum in East Haven calls itself the Branford Electric Railway Association. The BERA continues to operate the Branford Electric Railway line and has done so since 1945. Hence the need to distinguish the two similarly named organizations and railway lines continues.

The New Haven Trap Rock Company Steam Engine No. 43 that used to operate on the Branford Steam Railroad is now held at Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania. It was donated to the Steamtown organization (then of Vermont) in 1962 and was moved to Scranton with the collection.

Gunfighters of Casa Grande (Template:Lang-es) is a 1964 Eurowestern, co-produced by the United States and Spain. Based on a story by Bordon and Patricia Chase, it was later developed into a screenplay with the assistance of screenwriter Clark Reynolds and directed by Roy Rowland, one of his last films he directed for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

The film starred Alex Nicol, Jorge Mistral, Dick Bentley, Steve Rowland, Phil Posner, Mercedes Alonso, Diana Lorys, Maria Granada, Roberto Rey and Aldo Sambrell. Antonio Mayans and José Manuel Martín both had minor appearances in the film, Martin having an uncredited role.

The film's trailer was originally narrated by voice actor Don LaFontaine in his first credited role. He had been working as recording engineer and copy writer when, after the original announcer failed to appear for the scheduled recording, LaFontaine agreed to record the trailer.

Cast

• Alex Nicol as Joe Daylight — an outlaw and professional gambler, he is the leader of a group of bandits rustling cattle across the US-Mexican border.
• Jorge Mistral as The Traveler — a recent member of the gang, he is the most outspoken of the group questioning Daylight's leadership.
• Steve Rowland as The Kid — the youngest member of the gang, he and The Traveler become friends. Although reluctantly supporting Daylight, he and The Traveler eventually side against him.
• Dick Bentley as Doc — one Daylight's three partners, he is an elderly outlaw. Although less vocal, he wishes to retire in Mexico with the others.
• Phil Posner as Henri — another of Daylight's partners.
• Mercedes Alonso as Dona Maria de Castellar — the daughter of a neighboring rancher, she falls in love with The Traveler.
• Diana Lorys as Gitana — the girlfriend of Joe Daylight.
• Maria Granada as Pacesita — the personal maid and confidant of Maria, she and The Kid also become involved romantically.
• Roberto Rey as Don Castellar de Verdugo — a neighboring rancher and landowner. He is the father of Maria de Castellar.
• Aldo Sambrell as Rojo — a rival bandit leader whose gang is threatening the ranchers in the area, including Joe Daylight's outfit.

Plot

Joe Daylight is on the run along with members of his outlaw gang, The Kid, Doc and Henri. After fleeing from a bank robbery, they manage to elude the posse chasing them after crossing into Mexico. The gang had agreed to meet up later to divide up the money, however Daylight instead uses the money to buy a ranch, the Casa Grande. Although several of them protest, the gang agrees to follow Daybreak to the ranch. They are soon joined by The Traveler, who has recently joined the gang, and leads them to the ranch.

Daybreak plans to use the ranch as a cover to rustle cattle from his neighbors and sell them at inflated prices across the border, however his gang members soon adapt to life on the ranch. Both The Traveler and The Kid meet Dona Maria de Castellar and Pacesita, with whom they eventually fall in love with.

Daybreak's plans are temporarily threatened by another bandit gang led by Rojo, who begins stealing cattle from numerous ranches in the area including his own. Organizing the local ranchers against the bandits, they succeed in chasing off Rojo. This has an unintended consequence however as Daybreak's men have decided to remain at Casa Grande. He and his men begin to argue and, during the course of events, shoots and kills Doc. This leads The Traveler to kill Daybreak in turn. With Daybreak dead, the men settle down with The Traveller and Maria begining a new life on the Casa Grande.

Reaction

Gunfight at Casa Grande was released in Spain during early 1964 and premiered in the United States on April 1, 1964; it was later released in Europe between May 1964 and September 1965. Moderately successful, the film earned $19,939,562 Pls (US: $189,608) during its initial run in Spain.

The film was aired on television in the United States during the late 1960s until the mid 1970s and again during the early-to-mid 1990s. The film was released on dvd during the early 2000s, although on a limited scale.
