New York Central train which carried tree planters free of charge, from Lake Clear Jc. to planting ground daily for two weeks.

View of a train on the New York City and Hudson Railroad near Lake Clear Junction in Harrietstown, Franklin County in the Adirondack Mountains. There are several men and at least two boys standing in or near the train. The men are tree planters being taken to a reforestation site. The date is unrecorded, but probably ca. 1900-1920. This image was likely created to record the reforestation activities of the New York State Forest, Fish and Game Commission.
