Visiting the Finger Lakes Railway
Posted by Harrison on Friday, March 31, 2023 7:13 PM

In December of last year I visited the Finger Lakes Railway. With rich Conrail heritage (although the NYC origins are more clear in this video) April 1st is a great day to appreciate this unique shortline.

Thanks for the video.  Did you notice if the Skaneateles Junction station is still there?

It's still there. The Google Streetview imagery is a few years old, but it looks much the same today.
