OUR EQUIPMENT

The Catskill Mountain Railroad rosters a wide variety of passenger and freight railroad equipment used for carrying passengers in addition to maintaining and repairing the railroad.

We are currently working to increase our passenger capacity to meet the growing demands for our services. We also continue to expand our fleet of mechanized track maintenance equipment to improve our efficiency. ESOPUS SCENIC TRAIN The pride of our fleet is No. 407, a 1946 Alco S-1 Locomotive that the CMRR purchased from the NYC MTA in 2010. This engine is fully renovated to modern standards, and its 660hp can run our longest train. The 407 serves as our primary engine for the Scenic Train.

The Scenic Train also contains two ex- Navy Flat Cars converted to open passenger service, and two ex- Lackawanna Coaches, fully restored. Each coach and flat have a capacity of about 70 people, giving us a capacity of 280 for our Scenic Train.

The CMRR has an ex-army flat in Phoenicia that it is restoring to service to increase our capacity for the Scenic Train, as well as another ex- Lackawanna Coach, currently stored in Kingston.

KINGSTON CITY LIMITED In Kingston, our main engine is No. 401, a 1950 Alco RS-1 Locomotive that came to the CMRR in 1988 from the Green Mountain Railroad in Vermont. The RS-1 has a 1000hp engine.

Our Kingston City Limited also has a 40 foot flat car with a roof with a capacity for 55, and a former PRR N5B with a capacity of 20. We recently added a former LIRR coach No. 2940 to the train, with an all-weather capacity for 80.

The CMRR has an ex-army flat in Shokan that it plans to bring to Kingston to increase our capacity for the Kingston City Limited by another 70 people, as well as two Ex-CNJ coaches with a capacity for 70 each awaiting restoration in Kingston.
