Join local historian Alan Held on a ride through Warwick's railroading history and discover the 28 miles of railroads that once served the Town of Warwick, its villages, and hamlets.
Friday, March 8th
Doors open at 6:30pm
Featured in the presentation will be then-and-now comparisons, maps, and rare images of Warwick that will show the importance that railroads had to the industrial development of the region. From existing trackage, to little-known branches abandoned more than a century years ago, we will explore the track, stations, locomotives, and the stories of the half dozen railroads that built our community.
This program is free to the public courtesy of the Warwick Historical Society (WHS). Anyone with an affinity in history; from amateur to expert, is welcome to attend. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with light refreshments preceding the program at 7 p.m. For more information about the program or the WHS call 845-986-3236 or visit warwickhistory.org.
