In the early 1990s, I had been compiling a database of existing
railroad stations in New York. After gathering about 200 stations, I
decided to construct a web site. While researching these stations has
been personally rewarding, I feel that sharing this information on the
Internet helps others who are interested in the history and preservation
of classic railroad stations.

In the early 1990s, I had been compiling a database of existing railroad stations in New York. After gathering about 200 stations, I decided to construct a web site. While researching these stations has been personally rewarding, I feel that sharing this information on the Internet helps others who are interested in the history and preservation of classic railroad stations.
