Welcome to the 2015 Convention and Annual Meeting of the New York Central System Historical Society. And welcome to Utica, New York, the “Crossroads of New York” in the historic and beautiful Mohawk Valley. Without Utica and the other cities that grew up along the Mohawk River, there never would have been a New York Central Railroad – never would have been a Water Level Route. “You can sleep!” Central’s famous slogan proclaimed, with implications that a good night’s sleep would be unthinkable on any other New York-Chicago carrier, and that such a trip might even be dangerous. So pay homage to the Mohawk Valley as we celebrate the 45th anniversary year of the New York Central System Historical Society here in Utica. Convention Chairman Dick Barrett and his committee have lined up a wonderful array of activities for you, many right here in the historic Utica Hotel. But I also urge you to do a little touring. You might want to visit the former NYC passenger stations at Little Falls, Rome, or Syracuse. If you head east to Little Falls, you might want to look for the spot where the 5315 met her doom on the night of April 19, 1940. If you go west to Rome, you might want to check out the Fort Stanwix National Monument, and if you go as far west as Syracuse, you will want to take a look at DeWitt Yard. Of course Saturday’s ride up Dr. Webb’s railroad into the Adirondack wilderness to Thendara will be a most remarkable experience for us all, and Saturday evening’s keynote address by noted rail historian John Taibi is certain to be entertaining as well as enlightening. My thanks go to NYCSHS Director Dick Barrett and to all on his 2015 Convention Committee for planning this wonderful gathering, to all of our presenters and hosts, and to you for your participation and continued support of the NYCSHS.

    AMTRAK William J. Flynn 1 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20001 Chief Executive Officer Email [email protected] Tel 202-906-3963 June 28, 2021 The Honorable Peter DeFazio The Honorable Sam Graves Chairman Ranking Member Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Chairman DeFazio and Ranking Member Graves: I am writing to express Amtrak’s concerns about reports that the House may include in the INVEST in America Act an amendment that would create a “North Atlantic Rail Compact” (NARC) with an ostensible charge to construct an ill-defined “North Atlantic Rail Network.” Amtrak is strongly opposed to the adoption of this amendment and the likely negative consequences of such a decision for the Northeast Corridor and the national rail network. Adopting the amendment would establish – without any hearings, committee consideration, studies or opportunity for those impacted by the proposal to be heard – support for an infeasible proposal, previously rejected because of the harm it would do to the environment, by an advocacy group called North Atlantic Rail (NAR) to build a new, up to 225 mph dedicated high-speed rail line between New York City and Boston. The dedicated high-speed rail line’s route (NAR Alignment) would not follow the existing Northeast Corridor (NEC) alignment that parallels Interstate 95. Instead, it would travel beneath the East River in a new tunnel; cross dense urban sections of Queens and Long Island to Ronkonkoma; turn north to Port Jefferson; traverse the Long Island Sound in a 16-mile tunnel to Stratford, Connecticut; and after passing through New Haven and Hartford, turn east across Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island to Providence, from which it would follow the existing NEC rail corridor to Boston.

  • Utica, New York Breweries
    UTICA, NEW YORK BREWERIES by Jon Landers Revised February 2001 The following is a list of Utica Breweries that I have researched during the last 20 years. All breweries did not bottle beer. Some breweries bottled their beer some of the years they were in business but some years did not. Many of them sold their beer only in kegs to saloons, taverns, hotels and bottlers. Some breweries had agents bottle, sell and deliver their beer for them. Many of these bottlers had their names embossed on the bottles instead of the breweries name. In addition to bottlers, early Utica directories have people listed as “beer peddlers.” Some early breweries may have used unembossed or unlabeled bottles. If a brewery never had their beer bottled, of course no bottles would exist today. During the Civil War the government levied a dollar a barrel tax on beer. To make it easier to ensure that the tax was paid on every barrel, the law dictated that breweries could not bottle their own beer. During this period, if a brewery wanted to have their beer sold in bottles they had to have a separate bottler bottle the beer. Most breweries used glass bottles but Dr. Cronk stoneware bottles have been dug in the Utica area. The bottles are debossed “Dr. Cronk” and do not have Utica, N.Y. on them. Pint and quart stoneware beer bottles were manufactured by Whites Pottery in Utica. After the Civil War ended, the government still kept the tax on the beer and it was some years before breweries were allowed to bottle their own beer.
