Of all the Sullivan County towns working to bring their hamlets back to life, none is engaged in a more wildly imaginative and eclectic mix of projects than Mountaindale. Theres a sculpture garden populated by recycled farm implements transformed into art, an outdoors fitness equipment station and a mural of an old-fashioned locomotive standing astride disused railroad tracks that havent seen a real train for years.
