Summary

[edit]
Description

This is an ore car used by the Lake Champlain & Moriah Railroad in the eastern Adirondack Mountains of northeastern New York State. The railroad existed from steam locomotive days in the late 1860s to the 1970s, in the diesel era. This ore car was apparently built in 1917 by Pressed Steel Car Company.

The Lake Champlain & Moriah Railroad hauled iron ore from the Minesville-Port Henry Mining District. The mining target was magnetite-rich bodies within Precambrian-aged gneisses.

This car is now on display at the Port Henry railroad station in New York State.
