In reply to Keith.

For my Copake History Facebook page I’m seeking old photos of railroads in Copake. Can you help me find some?

Thanks,

Did you know that the Harlem Line had a short spur west of Craryville going to Copake Lake for the purpose of harvesting ice? Some of the bed is still there.

In reply to Mike. Other than the Harlem Line, I skipped the closed stations... there are a few on the Hudson as well.

Emily, great site, it appears you’re missing the old Wilton Kent Rd station from your panorama project! It’s the only station that MNR has closed down on the NHL.

In reply to William Farkas (Bill). Thanks! Unfortunately I haven't made it to Hudson yet. One of these days!

I just discovered your site and am enjoying immensley. I used to live in Hudson, NY south of Albany about 40 miles. Thestation was quite run down and very delapidated then. It has since been restored. Any chance of a photo?

Thanks!

When you are done with the Hudson Line panorama, I think you should do some pictures of some Amtrak Stations that are not apart of the Metro North. Like Albany, Hartford, and Penn Station. Also, you can do a Panorama of the LIRR or New Jersey Transit.

In reply to Dan. For Wikipedia, right? I think you already know my stance on that site ;)

Ooh, you’re taking tours of the Hudson Line now. Any chance you’ll find the exact year of the closing of Croton North NYC Station, or the opening year of all the other stations in Yonkers?

In reply to fredmcain. So I guess Fred does trains as well as roads. Most of the right-of-way is still intact, but a large part of it is now a rail trail. Danbury Branch extension to New Milford has a shot, and extension of the Hudson Line north of Poughkeepsie would probably be in the works by now if the towns that would have gotten stations weren't so dead set against it the last time the MTA floated the idea. But extending the Harlem Line - I think we'll see US 66 recommissioned entirely between Chicago & Santa Monica long before we see the MTA re-lay any rail beyond Wassaic.
