In 1974, SCHA transported the last remaining vehicle of the Middleburgh and Schoharie Railroad to Depot Lane from the Middleburgh flats where it had been since 1936.  The restored 1891 passenger car is now on display for visitors along with a restored 1917 wooden caboose donated to the organization by the Bridgeline Historical Society.  In addition, SCHA was able to transport a period box car and a flatbed car to the site.  The museum also includes a 1920 scale model of buildings, cars and terrain of the area served by the Middleburgh and Schoharie Railroad.

Our speaker will be Mr. Dan Bradt, an instructor/teacher at Schenectady County Community College. The talk will begin at 7 PM at our meeting house in the old creamery building at 143 Depot Lane in the Village of Schoharie. There is no admission charge. The Saratoga & Schenectady Railroad was the second railroad to be built in New York State beginning its operations in 1832. Come learn about this history and how steam powered transportation changed everything! Schoharie Valley Railroad Museum is a non-profit entity of the Schoharie Colonial Heritage Association. All donations go directly to support our Railroad Museum, Palatine House Museum, to do repairs to buildings, improve and create new exhibits as well as present functions such as craft shows, children's summer theater, our spring and fall antique shows and other special events.
