Photographer: Howard C. Ohlhous
Taken: June 21, 2
Caption: Schohare Valley Station circa 1900
Additional Description: SV Railroad President Jacob Vrooman probably over-built this station compared to the needs of the small railroad, after the previous station burned down along with the adjacent engine house in April of 1875. Here we see the station, and a SVRR Engine with a passenger car. A carriage is at the ready waiting to shuttle passengers to one of the nearby hotels, the Parrot House, whose name appears on the side of the carriage. This photo is displayed on the wall inside the station house, which is now a museum.
