About the Business
Located at 34 River Road in Hyde Park, New York, Hyde Park Station is a museum and tourist attraction that serves as a landmark of railroad history, Roosevelt's Presidency, Vanderbilt's Empire, and the legacy of the Hudson Valley. Step aboard and ride back to the golden age of railroading as you explore the 110-year-old station and learn about the rich history of railroading in the Hudson Valley. Run by the Hudson Valley Railroad Society, the station is a well-preserved time capsule from the glory days of New York railroading.
Join us for our expanded show on November 10, 2024, celebrating Hyde Park Station's 110th anniversary with a ride-on railroad, new vendors, operating model train layouts, holiday characters, Polar Express raffles, and more. Our model railroads are more than just dioramas - they are realistic recreations of areas in the Hudson Valley that you can help build and operate with our members and volunteers.
The Station has also been featured in several movies, adding to its classic background and charm. Our story dates back to 1851 when a one-story wooden station was established by the Hudson River Railroad, connecting New York City and Albany. The Hudson Valley Railroad Society is dedicated to restoring, interpreting, and reimagining a more immersive museum experience at Hyde Park Station. Visit us at 34 River Road in Hyde Park, New York, and embark on a journey through the fascinating world of railroading in the Hudson Valley.

"Great place for amazing views and chill vibe"
"The museum was not open when we were there but I don’t think there is much to see anyway by peeking in. What is special is the story of the station and where it is located right next to the Hudson River. Hey it was good enough for the King and Queen of England. They had a hotdog with President Roosevelt there!"
"Okay, so as a teenager, a bunch of us got together and cleaned it up. Turned into a youth center. I left 46 year ago and was delighted at what it has become."
"On Friday September 20, 2019 I was driving back to the hotel from FDR and I noticed the road sign indicating an historic train station. I slowly drove down the hill and found it by the tracks facing the river. Unfortunately for me the station was closed at the time I was there. It is wonderful that this historic landmark has been preserved. Nearby is a small boat launch."
"Very nice museum, train portion is great.. It looks wonderful in there. At night the spirits will talk to you which is amazing... Just a beautiful tain station with an extra twist at night... Love it"
