train station, MP 19.2, was a busy station, serving an even busier
town. This station was actually located in the
village of West Shokan, with the actual town of Shokan being a mile east of the station itself. This station was the stop for summer residents staying at
boarding houses, and a stop for local people going to
church or
school. The station was abandoned on June 8, 1913, and the site is now underwater, as the
Ashokan Reservoir was built where of U&D trackage used to be.
