The CMRR's all Voluteer crew on hand October 9th,2004
On October 9th 2004 the CMRR opened up a section of railroad that had not seen a passenger
in 50 years through the dedication and planning of an all volunteer
employee roster. The crossing over SR 28 and heavy bridge and track
work was contracted out and completed just in time for the autumn
colors.

Volunteers made it possible for NARCOA to extend the D&U trackcar
meet onto the Catskill Mountain Railroad as far as Station Road in
Pine Hill. This is a very rare treat for trackcar enthusiasts. This
is the first such event on the CMRR since the operations department
banned such trips 20 years ago.
Ulster County Planning Board Studies the The
Rail Trail Corridor
Many believe the county is under pressure to convert unused "Out of
Service" portions of the Right of Way Leased to the CMRR to a Walking
Path. We at the CMRR believe rail with trail is the only option
available, the railroad is not abandoned as is the case with the other
rail trails in the county with no track on them.
