Some of each |
| Description: |
CR was still using electric power at that time, but occasionally it would get an assist from diesels. We see such a power set at Kearny as it prepares to head over to Harsimus Cove with a pair of then new SD40-2's. |

Busy |

WABH 11 is working Frito Lay with a GP 38, typical for that job at the time, as BUOI rolls east, having just worked at Binghamton. |

OIBU on the river |
| Description: |
OIBU runs along the Susquehanna at one of my favorite spots with a long cut of empty hoppers head out. Sometimes, rather than have the cars wait for the next Goudy coal train, Conrail would run them back to Buffalo on OIBU, then forward them from there in regular trains. |

Blowing through Barton |
| Description: |
OIBU rolls past a hay field at speed with a big cut of P&S hoppers head out. They'll go to the Buffalo & Pittsburgh at Salamanca, forwarded on an empty hopper train, or OIEL from Gang Mills. |

Double zeroes |

A pair of CR units, both ending in "00" roll OIBU past a Barton hayfield. The 6600 is the class unit of CRs ten C30-7s. The 6400 is just another SD40-2. |

Under the bridge |
| Description: |
OIBU rolls under the NY 427 overpass, one of my favored locations due to the scenic shot and easy access off NY 17. |
