Which railroad? There were several back then which went through Rensselaer ... Rensselaer and Saratoga was the big one, but there was also the Boston and Albany, D&H, and NYC predecessors ... there were quite a few.

Local libraries or historical groups in the area may have some info. Call them or check their websites. But you may have to visit them in person.
