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 , it was the shortest standard-gauge railroad line in the United States.〔Jamieson, Paul and Morris, Donald, ''Adirondack Canoe Waters, North Flow'', Lake George, NY: Adirondack Mountain Club, 1987, p. 67. ISBN 0-935272-43-7.〕 There is a detailed, animated, three-dimensional model of the carry railroad at the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake. ==History== The Marion River played an important part in the development of the central Adirondacks. Both Blue Mountain Lake and Raquette Lake were acquired by Thomas Clark Durant, developer of the Union Pacific Railroad, as part of the building of the Adirondack Railway to North Creek in the 1870s.〔(St. Hubert's Isle - The Marion Carry Railroad )〕 Durant, his son, William West Durant, and other family members built hotels and great camps on both lakes. W.W. Durant dammed the river at the Utowana end in 1879, and operated a sawmill there; this also allowed steamboats to travel most of its length. This was followed in 1900 by the Marion Carry Railroad, which operated until 1929. Efforts to save one of the steam locomotives from the railroad in 1947 led to the creation of the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake, where the engine may still be seen.〔(Adirondack Museum - "Adirondack Journal — Fifty Years of History" )〕 It was also unusual in connecting to steamboat routes on either end, rather than other railways.〔Kudish, Michael, ''Where Did the Tracks Go in the Central Adirondacks?'', Volume Two, Purple Mountain Press, Fleischmanns, New York, 2007.
