Riding the CMRR Kingston Shuttle to Washington Avenue and return

I didn't film the whole CMRR Kingston Shuttle ride from Westwood Station to the end of running operations, which is Washington Avenue, but I figured if I did the second crossing after departure to Washington Avenue and starting to head back, that would suffice. We start at the shopping center crossing, watch the engine smoke up a bit down the line, rattle over the old O&W switch, come up to Washington Avenue, and then head back to the station, until the video ends just past the switch. Enjoy the sound of the odd sounding Leslie S5T, the chug of the turbocharged 539T, and the fact that this operation has come so far. Please visit their website: http://www.catskillmtrailroad.com. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on August 15th, 2009.
