RELIEF, a station in the northwestern part of Columbia County. "The first engines, Nos. 41 and 42, pulled two cars each up to the point where each dropped a car and went on. It was such a relief to the engine crews that the place has been known as Relief ever since." (William Goodyear, in Names MSS. Letter 43.)
