The Adirondack Railway (originally Adirondack Company) was a
Delaware and Hudson Canal Company in 1889. The two companies officially merged on November 5, 1902.[2] A stage-coach line was established to take passengers 28 miles (45 km) to Durant properties at Blue Mountain Lake and further by water to Raquette Lake
.
The line operated from 2011 to 2018 as a tourist and freight route called the Saratoga and North Creek Railway.
