MATHEMATICA
T[n_, n_] = 1; T[n_, k_] /; 0 <= k <= n := T[n, k] = T[n - 1, k - 1] + k*(k + 1)*T[n - 1, k + 1]; T[_, _] = 0;
row[n_] := DeleteCases[Table[T[n, k], {k, 1, n}] , 0];
Array[row, 13] // Flatten (* Jean-François Alcover, Nov 09 2017 *)
CROSSREFS
Essentially the same triangle as A059419, which is the main entry for this triangle.
Row sums give A006229.
