Port Henry, New York, 30th of April, 1971....
Local SC-13 runs around its short train after having arrived from Whitehall. The empty D&H two-bay hoppers will be used
to bring iron ore down the hill from Republic Steel's Mill No. 7 sintering plant and concentrator over the Lake Champlain
and Moriah Railroad. The D&H acquired the LC&M trackage from Republic Steel in 1969. Mining operations ended in 1971.
Port Henry was the site of one of the first blast furnaces in the U.S., having started up in 1822.
