Thendara station is the Adirondack Scenic Railroad's longest-duration northern terminus, and is near Thendara, New York. It is served by trains heading south to Utica beginning around the month of May each year.[2] Trains continue along the 57-mile route along the Moose River in Adirondack Park.[3] In the Winter, the right-of-way is used as a major snowmobile trail in the area after trains stop running in October.[4] The resort village of Old Forge is 1.9 miles northeast of Thendara.

The station has been a contributing property of the "Thendara Historic District" since November 10, 2010.
