Old Cable Railway
Costing $110,000 when it was built in 1875, this 7,392 foot cable railway operated cars every 1/2 hour, from the edge of Lake George Village, Adirondacks, NY, to the Summit of Prospect Mountain. The fare was 50 cents per person, which was quite expensive, considering $3.00 a week average wages. Failing financially, the railway ceased operation after only 8 years.The rusting rails were removed for scrap during WWI. This rusted cable "Bull Wheel" which sits atop Prospect MT. are all that remain.
