rouses point - champlain historical society

After years of planning, and extensive restoration, the Rouses Point-Champlain Historical Society has opened its exihibit inside the Former Rouses Point, New York Railroad Station. The Amtrak Railroad's, Montreal-to-Penn. Station, New York City run makes its first stop inside the United States in front of this building. The material currently on display come from items donated or on loan from workers of the rail lines that have passed through this community, and are no longer in existence. This includes the Delaware & Hudson Line, and the Rutland Line. I was told that railroad material will be the base exhibit, but future exhibits will include local items of interest, including Fort Montgomery. Plenty of parking, no admission fee, no website, but they are on Facebook, which includes information on open times and days, and photos. This is a small station, so a careful examination of all of the objects should be a half-hour.
