Postcard #47: Dayline Docked at Newburgh



Newburgh was a destination for the Dayline as well as a terminal. The dock for the Dayline was just north of the bus terminal- which was next to the ferry building. "Newburgh is a popular stopping point for one day excursions of the Hudson River steamers. It is impossible for the boats to accommodate all the people ready to take the opportunity of an enjoyable sail on a hot summer day. To view the splendid scenery, fanned by a refreshing breeze, while the band plays lively airs, is indeed a rare treat and delightful outing."
