About: Marion River

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Marion River is a 4.5-mile (7.2 km) river that connects Blue Mountain Lake via Utowana Lake and Eagle Lake (the Eckford chain) to Raquette Lake in Hamilton County in the central Adirondacks. New York State has classified the Marion as a Scenic River. The Marion River Carry is a portage around the rapids in the Marion River to Utowana Lake. The carry was shortened by a dam, that raised the level of the river and then by the Marion River Carry Railroad; at 1,320 yards (1,210 m), it was the shortest standard-gauge railroad line in the United States.

  • The Marion River is a 4.5-mile (7.2 km) river that connects Blue Mountain Lake via Utowana Lake and Eagle Lake (the Eckford chain) to Raquette Lake in Hamilton County in the central Adirondacks. New York State has classified the Marion as a Scenic River. The Marion River Carry is a portage around the rapids in the Marion River to Utowana Lake. The carry was shortened by a dam, that raised the level of the river and then by the Marion River Carry Railroad; at 1,320 yards (1,210 m), it was the shortest standard-gauge railroad line in the United States. There is a detailed, animated, three-dimensional model of the carry railroad at the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake. (en)
  • Il Marion River è un fiume che attraversa la contea di Hamilton, al centro dei Monti Adirondack nello Stato di New York, Stati Uniti d'America. Nasce a 550 metri di altezza dal Lago di Blue Mountain, nei pressi dell'omonimo villaggio, e sfocia nel Lago Raquette, del quale è l'unico immissario, presso il villaggio omonimo. Il suo bacino si estende per 87 km2. Lungo il suo breve corso vi è un portage che bypassa le rapide del fiume nei pressi del lago Utowanw. Questo portage è stato accorciato dalla costruzione di una diga sul fiume ed è percorso dalla ferrovia del Marion River Carry, che così è diventata la ferrovia a scartamento normale più breve degli Stati Uniti.
