TUPPER LAKE, N.Y. — For the first time since 1981, an Adirondack Railroad train traveled from Thendara Station, just outside of Old Forge, north to Tupper Lake.
The special train traveled on Tuesday (Sept. 13) to celebrate the recently completed reconstruction of state-owned track between the two stations.
Events at the Tupper Lake Depot included a welcome by community leaders, a ribbon cutting and photo, remarks by invited guests, and a tour of the Tupper Lake community, recently awarded a $10 million Development Renewal Incentive Grant by the state.
