Robin and I drove into the Kingston Plaza and parked and I re-named pictures while Robin kept an eye out for the train.

Two views of our train.
We picked up our tickets for our trip and we learnt that this was a Chuggington event, so it would be interesting.
The train left the Kingston Plaza.
The Chuggington Event was on the baseball diamond in Kingston.
The eyes are always watching.
Robin was enjoying the Chuggington Event on the Catskill Railroad.
The train ran by all the stores in Kingston Plaza.
More views in Kingston.
Crossing the road on which we entered Kingston and got petrol earlier this afternoon.
The eyes are always watching.
Interesting plants along our route.
Sometimes I do look up.
We went under the Toll Road we would leave Kingston on later this afternoon.
A bus company yard.
Down at the end of the road.
View of our engineer.
The train crossed Esopus Creek after which the views finally opened up.
The great views lasted until the end of the westbound trip.
This is as far as the train ran on this trip and we would now reverse back to Kingston Plaza.
The Chuggington Event was a fantastic event for the Catskill Railroad. I would like to thank again the Catskill Railroad for having us aboard their two trains this afternoon. Robin and I then drove to Rutland where we checked into the Days Inn for our stay at the 2014 Rutland NRHS Convention.
