Re: Saratoga & North Creek (S&NC) Discussion

All the equipment was moved from North Creek to Corinth. Nothing left up there but some skids of parts that need to be shipped out and a backhoe and some old hirail trucks that are being moved out shortly. SNC 52 and SNC 5 worked together to remove the equipment and secure it.

For those of you waiting for the auction, don’t hold your breath. The equipment is gone. Some parts still remain but will be long gone before any legal action can be completed.

BR&P, if you would kindly send the print to CNY NRHS at PO box 229 Marcellus, NY 13108 we would gladly add it to our collection. We purchased the car along with OLS-8, the sled trailer from OLS last year and we try to keep as many photos of our equipment as possible in the event we want to resto...

CNY NRHS is going to try and raise funds to repaint ALCO #5 but I’m not sure if it will get painted in 18 or not. Depends on what it costs to paint it.

M-403 is still awaiting it’s next project, it’s not in bad shape but sitting hasn’t helped. The M-402 and M-408 belong to United Railroad Historical Society and are stored on CMSL. I do t know the ownership on the others but I’m sure Tony owns most of them. He’s a really nice guy so just ask and he ...

The only one I’m willing to say (I don’t want to upset the guys signing the checks) is that ALCO #5 is going to CNY NRHS, it’s a matter of the paperwork at this point. As for the E-8’s, they are being prepped to move to another railroad along with one or more BL-2, the passenger cars are being flung...

Nycrrson, have you mistaken RGV for CNY NRHS? RGV has come a long way in recent years and if I had to donate my equipment I’d send it to RGV before any other group in NY. I have already donated to them in the past and I feel they are doing a rather fine job. Just to put as much rest to that as possi...

I appreciate your position only to an extent Noel, I feel that people should be warned about how Adirondack does things. Let's face it, they are in NO WAY well run and the comments on this site only go to prove that. I agree that it's a wonderful piece of railroad that needs to be preserved and run....

We really wanted the two running together and I feel the person we delt with did as well. All we asked was to sit down and iron it out and come to a compromise but the reply from the railroad did not have room for negotiation and we really hated to see that since we have always wanted to see back to...

Nice to see they have the money to buy more equipment after they fail to pay the lease payments on others. So if you plan to lease to Adirondack, get paid upfront for everything or you will be forced to go to court. We tried to work something out and the short reply was that they will not pay for th...

We have a GG-1 in Syracuse and are thinking about lighting it up for events. The main question is what voltage does it use for the lights and stuff? A diesel uses 64 volts DC and we have those bulbs but I'm not sure it used that since it was high voltage. Our thought was in the case of a diesel we w...

The RHSX 27 is being sold, the sale is pending another matter at this time. The NYC 8223 (RHSX 8223) is being removed from ADIX in spring, the railroads attorney has confirmed as has the railroad, they no longer want the unit and the owners have other plans for it.
