Windmill at Lehigh Valley Railrod Station - Rochester, NY - Windmills on Waymarking.com

Although this windmill is not part of a museum, this is a historic site. The Lehigh Valley Railroad Station was established here in 1905, for both passenger and freight train traffic. (visit link)

I can only speculate that this windmill pumped water from the Genesee River or the nearby Erie Canal feeder to replenish water tanks in steam operated railroad engines.

Date of Manufacture: 01/01/1905 Purpose: Water Pumping Open to the public: yes Is This Windmill Functional?: Not Sure Windmill Farm: no Cost: 0.00 (listed in local currency) Museum on Site: no
