Welcome to the “2nd Section” of the Fresh York Central Home Page
Here’s a preview of some of the arousing projects we have put together for you:
Railroad Station at Troy, Fresh York
The station in Troy was possessed by the Troy Union Rail Road. The TURR lasted from the mid 19th Century till the mid 20th Century. It was wielded by the Fresh York Central, Delaware & Hudson and Boston & Maine. Access from the South was from Rensselaer; from the West, via the Green Island Bridge; from the North was street running almost the entire length of Troy. See Penney’s blog for more information (and a fine movie from the 1950’s).
The station consisted of six thru tracks and towers at each end. The Central had at least one switcher assigned here.

What Made Up the
Fresh York Central System?
Home of the Superb Steel Fleet of passenger trains
including the well known 20th Century Limited. Known as The Water Level Route, serving customers inbetween Fresh York/Boston and Chicago.
[email protected] is a place to discuss the Fresh York Central Railroad’s US operations, including the Boston & Albany, Pittsburgh & Lake Erie, Peoria & Eastern, among others, as well as its Canadian divisions through Southern Ontario as well as the branch to Ottawa.
Discussion is not limited solely to rail operations, since the NYC had significant marine and trucking operations as well. Current equipment spottings are encouraged. The only confinements are that the information relates to the NYC or other lines operating under its flag. Modellers, historians and anyone with an interest in the NYC family of railways are welcome.
This group is dedicated to modelers, historians and fans of the late, good Fresh York Central Railroad-gone, but not forgotten!
This is a discussion and sharing group for friends and former employees of the “Water Level Route”, the late and fine Fresh York Central Railroad Company. Our concentrate is primarily historical, and mostly limited to the NYC ( and PC successor ) period prior to ConRail. Our emphasis is upon routes, signaling, towers and operations.

To share information, photos and memorabilia relating to the Peoria & Eastern Railway. All fans of this former Fresh York Central subsidiary are welcome! Any conversations and photos of P&E railroad models are welcome as well.
