BRODHEAD'S BRIDGE RAILROAD STATION

The railway station of the village of 'Brodhead's Bridge, New York' was at milepost 18.1 on the Ulster and Delaware Railroad. It was a destination for tourists and vacationers from New York City who would stay at local resort homes (boarding houses) and use the nearby Esopus Creek to swim and fish. Similar resort villages named Atwood and Olive Bridge were also served by this station, which was submerged in 1915 by the waters of the newly-built Ashokan Reservoir.
