St. Joseph's Depot Restoration Project

Mr. Stuart Salenger has purchased the former O&W St. Joseph's/
Gilman's Passenger Station which was located on the Monticello
Branch. In addition to the station, Stuart also has taken possession
of the house across the road and sizable adjoining acreage.

Mr. Salenger wishes to restore the station exterior and interior and
create a vintage "General Store", so to speak. Additionally, there
is a plan to lay a piece of track in front of the station and obtain
a parlor car to serve meals in.

Stuart and his associate have the resources to pull this off. Now Mr.
Salenger is looking for some assistance concerning information about
the station and possible suggestions for the preservation of this
unique structure.

Stuart can be reached at P.O. Box 3, Forestburgh, NY 112277-0003 and
his email address is ssalenger@hughes.net.

It is my understanding that one or both gentlemen will try to attend
the May monthly meeting to introduce themselves and ask questions.
