Frank, I searched several old DL&W timetables and lists of stations, even going back to pre-Clarks Summit - Hallstead Cutoff days. I couldn't find Hop Bottom listed. I did find Foster on both the cutoff and on the old Nicholson Line. According to Taber's book, Hop Bottom was the name of the village, but Foster was the name of the station.
