Is that the one Bob Petrie took to the office from New Rochelle?

Rob Petrie took the New Haven Railroad line, which was rolled into Metro North in 1970 along with the old New York Central lines. Everything out of Grand Central Terminal ended up rolled into the Metro North division of NYMTA thanks to the work of Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.

In the pilot for the "Dick van Dyke Show", Carl Reiner played the TV writer, and the title was "Man of the House". CBS liked the idea, but not Reiner as an actor, and producer Sheldon Leonard was looking for something for Dick van Dyke. Up until that point Dick had been doing guest stints, such as one on the old "Phil Silvers Show". This ended up being his shot at greatness.
