Hobart Railroad Station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hobart Station, MP 77.5, was another station on the Ulster and Delaware Railroad (U&D) that had a lot of freight income. There was a Sheffield Farms Creamery right nextdoor to the Hobart freight house, and there a sleuth of farms in the area, along with plenty of boarding houses and churches. It was such a busy freight stop that it served even after the end of passenger service on the U&D in 1954, while it was still under New York Central ownership, which it had been since 1932. However, it caught fire in the 1970s, and was destroyed.
