On July 31, 1906, it was merged into the Rensselaer and Saratoga (which was eventually controlled by the Delaware and Hudson Company). Prior to its merger it was controlled by the latter company through ownership of its entire capital stock.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt its demise the property of The Glens Falls Rail Road Company consisted of a single-track standard-gauge railroad extending from Fort Edward to Lake George, approximately 14.46 miles. That portion of its road from Fort Edward to Glens Falls, about 5.40 miles in length, was constructed during the year 1869, partly by independent contractors (Culver and Hatfield) under supervision of the Rensselaer and Saratoga, and partly by forces of the latter which acquired it upon completion on June 24, 1869. During 1882, an extension of the road to Caldwell (now Lake George), about 9.06 miles, authorized by a special act of New York of March 14, 1873, was constructed under contract with John O'Brien and John C. Rodgers, independent contractors. The cost of constructing the extension was assumed by the Rensselaer and Saratoga.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eRelated Collections\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/collections\/railroad\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/files\/CollectionIconRailroad.png?v=1664138815\" width=\"120\" height=\"113\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/collections\/new-york-railroads\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/files\/CollectionIconNewYorkRailroads_2469c022-a576-4698-be0f-a674a174ae71.png?v=1665229021\" width=\"120\" height=\"113\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/collections\/delaware-hudson-railroad\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" height=\"113\" width=\"120\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/files\/CollectionIconDelawareHudsonRR.png?v=1664627849\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/collections\/rensselaer-and-saratoga-rail-road\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" height=\"113\" width=\"120\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/files\/CollectionIconRensselaerSaratogaRR.png?v=1669048500\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/collections\/new-york\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/files\/CollectionIconNewYork.png?v=1663786614\" width=\"120\" height=\"113\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ghosts of Wall Street","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48852248789240,"sku":"4522bulk","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0055\/6253\/1904\/products\/4522.png?v=1583872513","url":"https:\/\/ghostsofwallstreet.com\/products\/glens-falls-rail-road-company-lot-of-5-pieces","provider":"Ghosts of Wall Street","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
