ATTENTION: Catskill Mountain Railroad Co. is under attack from the trail committees and organizations who are trying to eliminate us from Kingston. Not only are they trying to kill our Basin Road Plan but they want us gone so they can rip up the tracks and build their trail. We advocate doing both Rail with Trail and are willing to work with them but they only want a trail. WE NEED YOUR HELP please write your letters to our local papers and contact your Ulster County officials today. Info and Contacts below….

From what Oklahoma Heritage Railway Association has told Transcontinental Railroad Productions (and you'll have to take their words) Cosmetic work on 207 at Tulsa Expo Square is close to completion. Most recently, the locomotive's cab interior has been painted. About $2000 has been raised for their fundraiser and they wish to thank everyone who's donating for your continued support and hope you can find an opportunity to ride the local shortline (whatever that means).

Meanwhile, at the , Frisco 4500's rods have been repainted and various woodwork tasks are underway, including the replacement of a catwalk board on the tank car behind the locomotive.

All this leading up to their annual Christmas lighting ceremony at the end of November. The lights will be on until early January.
