Near Railway Station

The Cooperstown & Charlotte Valley Railroad, a 16-mile shortline, is an ideal rail line to become a tourist passenger operation due to its proximity to the Cooperstown, one of Upstate New York’s most popular tourist destinations. With over 150,000 people a year visiting Cooperstown’s National Baseball Hall of Fame the market for such an operation is in place. Making the necessary renovations to the railroad and plugging in to the existing market are all that’s needed to make the operation a success. The railroad and museum sites are easily accessible from Interstate 88 by way of NYS Route 28. When the entire project is completed the Leatherstocking Railway Museum will consist of three separate facilities, the Cooperstown Passenger Handling Facility, The Milford Depot Complex and the Cooperstown Junction Museum Site. All three facilities will be connected by the Cooperstown & Charlotte Valley Railroad. In addition, the Cooperstown Dream Park and the Cooperstown Fun Park, two separately owned facilities adjacent to the CACV, are planning station stops at their operations to allow passengers to come and go from their sites.
