Little white church |
| Description: |
This church has seen more rail action that most of us ever will. It makes a great photo for a passing 261 on a snowy day. |

Along the Canisteo |
| Description: |
Train 261 rolls along the Canisteo River behind the usualy pair of SD 60s. Having a red on leading really makes for a festive look. |

Wide view |
| Description: |
A 261 train rolls around the big curve going into Canaseraga as seen from the NY 70 overpass. The Erie once had grade separated mains here, the eastbound being higher. That track was abandoned when Conrail single tracked the line in 1992. The view from up here is stunning on a nice day. |

Retired sentinel |
| Description: |
Train 261 passes one of the semaphores that guarded track 1 til it was taken out of service the year before. The Canisteo valley was up til then one of the best places to see them still in service. Some would last into the 21st Century elsewhere on the line. |

Only a little farther |
| Description: |
Train 165 is almost to the tunnel, passing here at Moottown Rd, just north of the north end of the old Dyes Siding, whose signal mast can be seen in the trees above the last engine. The four units are doing OK-there are only 24 cars today. |

Slowly I turn |
| Description: |
Train 413 rolls slowly through the south end of Bevier St, at what used to be BX cabin, as the rear of its train is stretched out to BD. Once clear of those obstacles, it will start its run to Belden tunnel in earnest. Todays effort has six units-including one of SOO's five SD60M's-for its 128 cars, a heavy train in this era. |

Making a run for it |
| Description: |
Train 413s six units are pulling hard to lift 128 cars to Belden tunnel. That non-dynamic brake ex B&M GP 40 won't be much help on the downhill side of the tunnel, as its lack of DB's will prevent the use of them on the trailing three units. |
