ex-NYC 8223 (date is an educated guess)
Title:  ex-NYC 8223 (date is an educated guess)
Description:  The date of this photo is based on the assumption that it was taken on the day that the Adirondack Scenic Railroad reopened to Carter. I'm not sure if this was taken that exact same day, but I'm fairly certain it was around that time, and in any case this photo does give a pretty good idea of what it was like to be at Thendara that year, even if there werg often far more people around than seen here! Since this photo was taken, the entire yard has been resurfaced and the tracks have been completely replaced, meaning that it does look quite different today.

ex-NYC #8223 With ex-CN Cabooses (the copyright date is wrong and the main date is an estimate)
Title:  ex-NYC #8223 With ex-CN Cabooses (the copyright date is wrong and the main date is an estimate)
Description:  This was where I started chasing 8223 during a deadhead move of old cabooses to Thendara in the summer of 1996, if I'm remembering correctly (I'll fix this later if I find out I'm wrong. :-)). You can already see some of the restoration work in preparation for the Utica extension, but this was, like I said, in 1996, so that was still a year away. See my collection of photos from the 1998 NRHS Convention for more on that.

MAN 2453 and ex-NYC 8223 With An NRHS Convention Special
Title:  MAN 2453 and ex-NYC 8223 With An NRHS Convention Special
Description:  The 1998 NRHS Convention was based in Syracuse, New York, and hosted by the Central New York Chapter. Nevertheless, because of Syracuse's close proximity to Utica, the Utica & Mohawk Valley Chapter also played a key role, along with the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society (ARPS). Central New York, regrettably, doesn't have the same range of attractions that Pennsylvania has, but the local tourist railroads, as well as some freight railroads, gave their all to ensure the best convention experience possible. The biggest event was, in my opinion, the re-opening of the Adirondack Scenic Railroad from Utica-Thendara, which had only been run once before since restoration, in 1997, when it was run for volunteers and dignitaries (the railroad is run completely by volunteers from the ARPS and NRHS). I worked the excursion, in my dual role as an NRHS and ARPS member, as a trainman, and I shot these photos for the railroad's use. When they had no use for them, I stored them, and here they are published for the first time. These runs went off without any major problems, even if subsequent months saw delayed trains due to late trackwork, and obviously everyone was quite excited at this vast expansion of the Adirondack's role as a tourist railroad. I took all of these pictures on the way back to Utica, so this one was taken at Thendara. The lead locomotive, an ALCO C425, was lent to us by the Mohawk, Adirondack, & Northern Railroad(MA&N), who run the freight services between Utica and Remsen, on the same route that we took.

This was on the way back at Nelson Lake, a station that's privately owned, and while on the employee timetable, no longer an active station.
