On your left (East) is Lake Champlain with Vermont Green Mountains in the background (too bad you are missing Stowe Vt. area. Maybe next time you are around!). On your right (West) are the Adirondacks. Again, great mountains scenery. >> .....and from Albany south to New York City, one of the most beautiful scenic river train rides this side of the Rhine, the Hudson River to your right. Eighty years ago, rich folk used to take the New York Central's Twentieth Century Limited from New York to Albany just to dine in the finest rolling restaurant in the world and enjoy the scenic Hudson, returning to New York from Albany on the night train. Enjoy.
