Out on the main...
On the west side of Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum's Industry depot is the former Erie Railroad Rochester Division which is now operated by the Livonia, Avon & Lakeville Railroad. Here we see a northbound LA&L road train approaching the museum and passing the depot.
The Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum is operated solely by dedicated volunteers and works in partnership with the New York Museum of Transportation to bring the visitor a unique dual museum experience interpreting the railroad and transportation history of Rochester and Western New York. Established in 1971, our roots go back to 1937 as the Rochester Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society, the third oldest chapter in the organization.
