Please take a moment to read through this. TOYX, also known as Operation Toy Train, collects thousands of toys across five states for children in need during the holiday season.

They are currently accepting donations to offset the costs of moving. Every little bit helps.

For those asking why our Port Jervis stop has been canceled this year, here's the full story. Read our full statement and learn how to make a difference at www.toyx.org/portjervis
