Poughkeepsie station 100

the Poughkeepsie station has been renovated,the Gazebo at Main Street has been repaired and opened and so the station is all ready for the big 100 - the station opened in 1914 one year after GCT

does anyone know if there are/or were plans for a celebration ???

perhaps May 10 Nat. train day?? that is if there was? or there is? plans for this day at the Poughkeepsie station - POU

I wouldn't hold your breath.

I'm sure the Poughkeepsie Journal will have "extensive coverage" of any planned event.

Are there any links to the renovation? I thought that poor old girl looked like she was 100 thirty years ago when I worked in Poughkeepsie and rode Amtrak from there on a regular basis.

RE: any links to Pok. station renovation

here is the link to the RR net post with pics I took of the restored station
