Tales of early railroads, like veins of historical gold, sparkle with rich nuggets of the nation’s past, as well as enchanting images of small-town life. This is the story of one such vein: the Delaware & Hudson Railroad in the Tri Valley area of New York, along the path of old Route 7 and the Schohanna Trail. The stories of communities that grew up along the railroad—Oneonta, Colliersville, Maryland, Schenevus, Decatur, Worcester, East Worcester, Richmondville, Cobleskill, and Central Bridge—reveal historical treasures long buried in the archives of rural valleys and bustling towns. Pan for gold in the pictures of Tri Valley: Cobleskill to Colliersville and you will find nuggets such as these: the birthplace of the men who invented the fountain pen and the air brake; the sad legends of Manaho and Chief Schenevus; the clash between sentiment and commercialism, as a bank was built on the grave sites of Pres. James Garfield’s ancestors; and the final resting place of Seth Flint, who was Gen. Ulysses S. Grant’s bugler in the Civil War and at Appomattox.
