Olive Branch station

This Ulster and Delaware Railroad station, MP 12.6, used to be located in the town of Olive Branch, New York, which was sunk under the Ashokan Reservoir. People, especially tourists, stopped at the station to go vacationing, considering it was a popular vacation spot and had a lot of well-maintenanced boarding houses before it was sunk. Freight was also loaded onto trains that stopped there, considering there were plenty of farms there.
The station was abandoned on June 8, 1913.[1]
