The Adirondack Railroad:
People and Places Along the Rails
By Persis Granger
Saturday, August 13th, 7:30 pm, Mountain Grove Memorial Church
While the large steamships get most of the publicity for bringing people up Lake George, the fact is that the railroads brought most people into the Adirondacks between 1880 and 1930. With there being renewed activity on the former Adirondack Railroad Line recently, this is a topic you won’t want to miss. It will touch on how the railroad brought people to the North Country, and how the trains brought life and activity to those who lived there.
