167
Title:  167
Description:  One of the less seen locations is between Chemung and Wellsburg, along NY 427. Its easy enough to get to, you just have to pass up the easy overhead shot at Chemung-or get it and go like hell to beat the train there, and hope there are no slowpokes.

Through a snowy world
Title:  Through a snowy world
Description:  Not uncommon this time of year. Train 167 works west under the Campville-Apalachin bridge in the usual white mantle for this time of year. Look at all the soft tops on the containers. Don't see that much.

By the boathouse
Title:  By the boathouse
Description:  There is a boating club-Id hesitate to call it a yacht club, especially since the mostly row sculls-near MP 232 as the line approaches Owego. We see 167 passing their new facility, its 110 cars stretched out along NY 17C.

Title:  419 over the Chemung
