Anybody who has traveled to Jamaica more than a couple times and loves the island you are doing a dis service to yourself and the country by not visiting Kingston. I remember being there in 1980 about a week before the elections walking down the sidewalk to the train station and nobody bothered me in any way. I felt safer than in NYC. The train ride to Mobay was awesome but our of concern for my camera stuff I left it in its bag during the journey, a huge mistake on my part. The train ride was like $5 USD and went from Kingston through Trench town and then the center of the island to MoBay. My mistake as the landscape was beyond words.

The train ride was like $5 USD and went from Kingston through Trench town and then the center of the island to MoBay. My mistake as the landscape was beyond words.

The train never went through Trench Town but South of there through Tivoli Gardens, Greenwich Town and Seaview Gardens where I used to live some years back.

I miss it for the sheer adventure of going through rural areas where road didn't even go. Perhaps it will come back in some form.
