We can see from the smoke that 142 is running backwards. Its being towed, as there is an SD 45 on the nroth end of the train, pulling it toward Cortland for more Festival goers. |

Anticipation |
| Description: |
The crowd at Marathon station waits anxiously for the festival train led by 142 as it approaches the station. Note all the heavy coats. Despite the April date-the event was held the last weekend of March or first weekend of April-it's pretty chilly out, temps in the 20's. At least it's not snowing, which has been known to happen. |

Big crowds |
| Description: |
A large number of people elected to park in Cortalnd and take the train to Marathon-a good idea, since parking was a nightmare. Some of them are here checking out their unusual power at the station in Marathon, while a throng of festival goers wait to get on going back to Cortland. |

How do you water a steam engine. |
| Description: |
In the 1990s, with a fire hose. Since steam service facilities are entirely a memory on anything other than a tourist line, one has to improvise to get water in the tank. Mostly this is done with a fire hose, which is equal to the task, and usually available by prior arrangement. Here the ground crew of 142 sets up to fill the tender. |

No its not 1946 |
| Description: |
During the Broome County Fair, NYSW ran trips from Whitney point up to the county line near Killawog. During one of these trips for the 1992 fair, a 1936 Buick pulled up to the NY 79 crossing in Lisle just as the train approached. The driver was actually paying attention, and unlike most motorists who go rolling right into your photo in a battered Ford, stopped before getting into the picture. Seeing the chance for an unusual shot, I waved him into the picture for a classic scene. |

Not staged |
| Description: |
Really....NYSW ran 142 for short trips during the Broome County Fair, held in Whitney Point. This trip was approaching the NY 79 crossing when the Buick came along. The driver saw several of us there taking photos and stopped. All of us-maybe a half dozen-waved him into the photo, making for this classic. Considering all the cars that ever got into a photo, this is the one we wanted in it-hes the guy that stops. |

River Road running |

Ready any time |
| Description: |
NYSW 142 has taken on water and coupled back to its train, and is now ready to head for Cortland to tie up for the day. Even the train had a large NY component-the first five cars all came off the LIRR. Theyre not old enough to have been pulled by one of Long Islands G 5s, but have run lots of miles behind Alcos. The roof of the DLW station can be seen behind the train. |

Waiting on time |
| Description: |
The NYSW ran excursions for the annual Mapathon Maple Festival, starting with a run down from Cortland. Mikado 142 was the star of the train for several years. In 1993, it was brutally cold and snowy-there had been a!20 plus inch snowfall a week earlier-even for the festival, which was notorious for its awful weather. While it made for a challenging chase, steam in the snow made for a great show. |

Looking down |
| Description: |
Several places along I 81 provide good views of the tracks, though I dont recommend sitting on the side of the interstate to do this. Its a volation of the Vehicle and Traffic Law for one thing, and not terribly safe for another. Nevertheless, a shot of a steam train was too much to resist, so we have this shot of the Maple Festival train near Messengervilie, seen from the shoulder of I 81. |

The consist today is a pair of RDC's, four ex LIRR P72 coaches, and five ex long distance/chair cars, with NYSW 4006 bringing up the rear. |

Along the interstate |
| Description: |
Just north of Homer, the NYSW line passes under I 81 and then runs adjacent to the highway for several miles. Its not really a good place to stop, but it can be a good photo location. Taken from the shoulder of I 81 north. |
