The Saratoga Corinth and Hudson Railway is a heritage railway in upper Hudson River region of the Adirondack Mountains, in the U.S. state of New York. It is based on Corinth, New York, and operates over a portion of the Adirondack branch.
See main article: Adirondack branch. The Adirondack Company constructed the Adirondack branch between 1865 and 1871. The line started at Saratoga Springs, New York, and ran north to North Creek, New York. The Delaware and Hudson Railway gained control of the line in 1889 and merged the Adirondack Railway in 1902. Warren County, New York, acquired the line within its borders in 1996; the town of Corinth, New York, acquired the southern end of the line in 2006.[1] [2]
The first heritage railway to operate on the line was the Upper Hudson River Railroad, which operated from 1998 to 2010. The Saratoga and North Creek Railway started operation in 2011 and ceased operations in 2018.[3] [4] [5] After several years without service, the Saratoga Corinth and Hudson Railway began running excursions in 2022.[6]
The rolling stock of the Saratoga Corinth and Hudson Railway includes two former Delaware and Hudson ALCO RS-3 diesel locomotives.[7]
