HISTORY OF THE RAILROADS THAT SERVED AKRON AND NEWSTEAD
May 9 @ 7:00 pm
The Akron/Newstead area has an extensive history staring in 1834 with the Medina and Darien horse-drawn railway. Followed by the NY Central “Peanut” branch in 1853, and finally the NY West Shore and Buffalo gauge quarry railroads. Join us for a power point presentation hosted by railroad historians, Bob Andrycha and Bob Scheib.
