Sacandaga Railroad Station

The Sacandaga Railroad Station is a historic train station located at 136 McKinley Avenue in the town of Northampton in Fulton County, New York. It was built in 1920 to serve Sacandaga Park and is a one-story, rectangular hipped roof wood frame building, 125 feet by 30 feet, on a concrete slab foundation. It features exposed rafter ends, small louvered dormers, and broad eaves in the Shingle Style. In the 1950s it was converted for use as a stable. It is a rare surviving, non-residential building remaining from the heyday of Sacandaga Park as a resort established and served by the Fonda, Johnstown, and Gloversville Railroad.[2]
