begins just west of MP 10.01. Proposed uses are: • ART Information • Ulster County Tourism information • Public indoor bathrooms • Commercial retail space (food and drink, bicycle repair and rental, or other convenience uses) • Covered area for events related to the ART and CMRR • A ticket office for CMRR. • A “North Pole” for the Polar Express. Secure storage yard and engine house CMRR needs a secure area to maintain its equipment, which it had at its Cornell Street yard until it was forced to vacate the yard by Ulster County on April 30, 2016. CMRR also needs an all-weather engine house to maintain its equipment year-round. CMRR has proposed four locations for a permanent yard at alternate locations in Kingston. To date no location has been worked out with the County and the City of Kingston. This forces CMRR to store and maintain all its equipment out in the open on the main line which is particularly difficult in the winter. Proposed track additions CMRR currently operates 4.7 miles of track with a single siding in Kingston, making operations and switching quite difficult. CMRR has requested permission to install a run-around siding in Kingston and one at its eventual western terminus to eventually allow engine-first operation on the entire line. Long-term goals Kingston-Glenford Dike (MP 3.6 to 11.1) Although CMRR is only currently allowed to operate to MP 8.33 in Stony Hollow, the railroad may eventually be allowed to operate to Basin Road at MP 10.01 at the border of the NYCDEP easement. The tracks from MP 8.33 to MP 10.01 remain in place and CMRR is currently requesting permission to renovate and operate on this segment with a proposed terminal at MP 9.95 near Basin Road. CMRR believes that in order to run future dinner train service, tracks will need to be rebuilt from MP 10.01 to the Glenford Dike at MP 11.1. While there is ample room for railroad and pathway to coexist in this segment, rebuilding track will require permission from the NYCDEP. CSX interchange at Kingston (MP 2.9 to 3.6) CMRR has been isolated from the national network since Conrail removed its Kingston interchange switch in 1996. CMRR believes that reconnecting with the national rail network via CSX (successor to Conrail by absorbing former NYC trackage) at Kingston maximizes the value of the railroad to its owner Ulster County.
