Viewing Album:  Adirondack Railroad: Tupper Lake to Lake Placid 10-25-12
 
By:Matt Giardino
Dates:10/25/2012 - 10/25/2012
Album Info:On October 25 of 2012 I was lucky enough to take a Hi-Rail trip from Tupper Lake to Saranac Lake along with a few invited politicians and local media. A large press conference was then held at the Saranac Union Station. We then took a free train ride from Saranac Lake to Lake Placid and return.

Title:  Entering what would have been the west end (railroad south) of the Saranac Lake yards
Description:  From basicly here to the station (about two blocks) we would take to the streets as it was easier to come off the rails away from grade crossings in town.
