Dover Plains Dover Plains, NY 12522

"Just moved up here, and I love the area.."

"Dover Plains is a nice little town. I was able to take a taxi from Dover Plains to Kent Falls State Park in CT. There is a wonderful little diner where i was able to get a bit to eat before my train. I love the small houses. The people were very helpful and friendly."

"Single-platformed station, so trains switch tracks when passing in opposite directions. A walkway across the tracks allows pedestrians to cross from one side to the other. Heated enclosure for waiting in cold conditions... though the homeless have commandeered it. Parking ample for this station’s usual volume. There is even an old stationhouse, which looks mostly abandoned. Digital signs shows the pending arrivals, and vending machines on the platform allow travellers to purchase tickets in advance."

"I alwyas just passing the station right now take look (commuter rail stop on the Metro North) Waiting warm booths room but right now the homeless enjoy."

"Dover Plain, Dutchess County, New York by Asher B. Durand (1796-1886) Durand slightly pre-dates the "School" of painter originated by his colleagues Cole and Church. His style has more of a mythic, Old World quality that the later workers in this area moved away from, favoring a realistic view that highlighted the abundant beauty that did not need embellishment"
