var str = 'Published a year after the conclusion of World War II, the tone of this 36-page travel guide to New York is on of making up for lost time. "With motor travel again unlimited," we are told, "New York's 59,000 miles of improved highways beckon the autoist to enjoy the State's attractions from the vantage-point of his own conveyance." Clearly, the automotive age has begun in earnest.
The state is divided into fifteen regional "Vacationlands," including the Genesee Valley and Finger Lakes. There are thematic sections highlighting activities for seemingly any taste: Fishing, Swimming, Hiking, Camping, Motoring, Historic Shrines... even Flowers and Geology make an appearance. It's an intriguing glimpse into the early trajectory of postwar tourism, which still is relatively outdoors-centered in its emphasis.';

var str = 'Number 8 on the Burleigh map, depot originally was located next to William Hamilton's produce business on the east side of North St. Constructed in ca. 1853 along with the Canandaigua & Niagara Falls Railroad, the line was purchased in 1858 by Cornelius Vanderbilt's New York Central as its Canandaigua branch--although popularly dubbed the "Peanut Line" due to its diminutive stature in the sprawling rail empire. In 1916 a new station was built on the west side of North St., where it still is standing today.
In the cutthroat railroad business, Vanderbilt's New York Central was quite aggressive in repackaging its more functional business in freight and passenger service into new, tourism-inspired "Excursions." Here, far-flung locations like Seattle and New England beckon Caledonians along with more familiar attractions like Niagara Falls. It's difficult to judge the success of such marketing; amidst competition from automobiles and consolidation of the rail industry, the Canandaigua branch closed in 1939--and this station along with it.';
