Street running
Title:  Street running
Description:  Almost. The right of way was actually separated by a concrete curb. We see WAIT 2 working through town with one car for Cargill, much to the relief of local drivers, who are used to seeing 90 car coal trains go past at 10 MPH. This train will likely return with several dozen salt cars, a typical move.

Elkhart bound
Title:  Elkhart bound
Description:  OIEL behind a pair of 4 motors, rolls past the eastbound signal at Hiawatha Rd. OIEL was usually an early morning train here, often getting through Owego by 0800. Counterpart ELOI was combined with BUOI at Gang Mills most of the time, and ran here infrequently.
