Route of the Phoebe Snow: 1949-1967

Presented by David Monte Verde

The November 11th meeting honors the 72nd anniversary of the inaugural of the famous Phoebe Snow passenger train with a presentation by Genesee Valley Transportation president David Monte Verde. A native of Dansville, NY., along the Route of Phoebe Show, Monte Verde has many memories of meeting the Lackawanna trains at the station while growing up. He'll look at the history of the Phoebe Snow character and the route over which it traveled, from the Hoboken water front through the many scenic wonders such as the Delaware Water Gap and the Poconos. Included will be some views of the detours in the wake of Hurricane Diane in 1955. With more than 200 images, this is a show not to miss.
