Title:
Westbound vans
Description:
A slightly different angle of a train seen elsewhere. CR had a big stable of 4 axle GEs that were common on these trains, especially on the Chicago Line, which was ideal for them. Three do the honors here on a 65 car TV 79.

Title:
On the way home
Description:
My route home was partly along NY 17C between Owego and Endicott. I caught trains there a surprising number of days. Today, its TV 201, rolling west near MP 232 in Campville.
