Terrific...thanks for posting. My kid lives a scant mile or so from the old Mohawk & Hudson ROW, presumably buried beneath the old NYC mainline running between Albany and Schenectady. It seems like New York is prodigious in its use of historic markers, yet I don’t recall ever seeing one commemorating the M&H Railroad. A quick query by the Google machine indicates there are two...worth looking them up next time I’m Upstate.

Outstanding!
Quite frankly, I’m against people who give vent to their loquacity by extraneous bombastic circumlocution.
