Jeff Junction |
| Description: |
TV 303 has just crossed Starrucca Viaduct and is now at CP Lanesboro, the location of Jefferson Jct, where the Erie had a line connecting to the D&H Penn Division. It has been only recently taken up as it was used to access the part of the D&H still in place while the Belden Hill project enlarged the tunnel. The right of way is now hidden under the snowpack to the right of the tall pole to the right of the train, never to see a passing train again. |

Oh those vans |
| Description: |
Conrail by the late 80s had become an intermodal powerhouse, and it was reaching a point where if you spent a day trackside on the ex NYC or PRR, the number of van trains about equalled the merchandise trains. TOFC was still pretty common in those days, and this train was typical. |

Coming in from Detroit |
| Description: |
DNBU rolls toward Buffalo with 107 cars from North Yard. In an earlier era, this train might have come across Canada on NYC subsidiary Canada Southern. Conrail sold that line several years prior to this photo, and it is no longer a through route, requiring a stateside journey for Detroit-Buffalo traffic. |
