About the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society

The Adirondack Railway Preservation Society, Inc. (ARPS), is a membership, volunteer-based, not-for-profit, 501 (c)(3) organization. The Adirondack Railroad is one of the services we operate on the former New York Central Adirondack Division in upstate New York. Since 1992, we have gradually expanded operations in partnership with the New York State Department of Transportation, and the contribution of more than 400,000 hours of volunteer effort. Volunteers and staff have helped this railroad grow from a four-mile excursion in the Old Forge area to a business that carries tens of thousands of passengers annually. Since inception we have carried almost two million passengers.

Our mission and purposes include the preservation and continuing provision of excursion passenger rail services from central New York to the northern Adirondacks, providing opportunities for residents and visitors of all ages and physical capacities to safely access in an environmentally responsible manner the scenic beauty of the Adirondack region. We contribute to community economic development and activity, working with small businesses to provide our passengers with opportunities to hike, bike, and float in otherwise inaccessible parts of the Adirondack Park, seldom seen by the casual visitor.
