What is Jerkwater?

What is Jerkwater?

I hate to sound like a history teacher, but... It comes from when steam engines used to travel up the Hudson line through Montrose. They would stop at the old Montrose train station and refill the water tank that feeds the boilers to power the train. The train crews would "jerk" or draw the water from the water tanks or streams by the track. Montrose was also known as a "Jerkwater Town" way back when. When the Cortlandt Engine Company was established in 1919, the term "Jerkwater" just stuck. And has been that way ever since. So it's called our Jerkwater/ Friendship nite.
