I'm guessing the National Guard was there to intercept Amtrak patrons from New York City and tell them to self quarantine?

You have the right idea, John. It is not as specific as that; signs on the depot state that anyone arriving from out of state and not on a business trip must self-quarantine. The guard is there to talk to them and make sure the message is delivered. As I understand it, they also ask out-of-state arrivals where they are staying. I have seen 3 trains arrive since they started work last Friday. 2 of the trains discharged 1 passenger each; the 3rd no one. It does not seem they are being overwhelmed with work at Kingston Station.
