Getting Here From There
Saturday, July 9, 2011 at 8:08AM 
We recently posted about the bus option, of getting you or your guests to Schroon from New York City. If you prefer a scenic ride on a train, then here's a way from New York Penn Station that gets you as far as Ticonderoga.
The train is Amtrak train #69 Adirondack. The daily departure is at 8:15 am from Penn Station, arriving at Ticonderoga at 1:17 pm - a 5 hour and 2 minute ride on the same train. Typically the return trip is on Amtrak train #68 -- departs Ticonderoga at 2:33 pm and gets to NY at 8:40pm, a 6 hours 7 minute ride
The trip ranges from between $62 to $69 one way, depending on the day you travel. Caught this train? Tell us about it in comments.

As of next week, if everything goes okay, you should also have the option of getting from NYC to North Creek. I don't know how the links from NYC to Albany to Saratoga work, but once you get there you can take the new train from Saratoga to North Creek. This train should be running from July to Oct.
