For about a century, the railroad was a part of not only economic growth and stability, but a window on the world. As old tracks and rail facilities are used less and less in many rural areas, volunteers get together and ensure they do not fade from memory.

That's what happened in Croghan, New York, as the members of RHSNNY have turned the old train station into a museum teeming with artifacts of life in the old days.

Our home was once the Croghan Depot for the Lowville-Beaver River Railway (L&BRR) and is full of memorabilia from days gone by.

Would you like to learn more about our history?

Stop by to view our most recent addition. It is a model train layout, built in 1989 and commissioned by Railroad Model Craftsman magazine, of the Lowville and Beaver River (L&BR) railroad. Information and pictures of this model layout can be viewed by going to http://www.cnynrhs.org/LBR1.html.
