Just off the bridge
Title:  Just off the bridge
Description:  TV 26 has just climbed up out of the Genesee valley with its 5 COFC and 40 auto racks, where it crossed Portage Bridge, and is now approximately at the location of the ELs NT tower, where the River Line went west to join the main at Cuba Jct. That line is lone gone by now, but the traffic on the former Buffalo Sub is pretty good today.

Made the light
Title:  Made the light
Description:  The trains always do!! The traffic light to the left of the train is set so that when the crossing gates go down, it turns red for traffic going over the crossing. Wish I had one of those.

BUOI heading east
Title:  BUOI heading east
Description:  BUOI has worked Gang Mills yard and is now heading east for Elmira and Binghamton with 51 cars. This was Eries, and later ELs yard in the Corning area. The track going out of the picture to the far left is the connection to the ex NYC line to Jersey Shore PA. That line originally ran on the other side of the Tioga River at this point. The connection was put in when the Erie and NYC were relocated out of downtown in 1951.
