New units at night |
| Description: |
Within a week of their delivery, a pair of CR Quality units appeared on a coal train. We were able to get a couple of night shots at Johnson while they were waiting for OIBU(with a pair of C32-8s!!) to pick them up and go west. |

Concrete rules |
| Description: |
One of the things that the DLW was noted for, and in some places, the Erie as well, was concrete structures. Here we see and XCL empty coal train sitting on the Jarvis St overpass on Binghamtons west side, a couple of spanking new Quality C 40s in the lead over a 60 year old bridge. |

New power |

A brand new pair of CR Quality C40-8Ws lead an XCL empty coal train on the west side of Binghamton. It will leave after dark, giving a bunch of us a chance to get some night photos. |

X2000 meet BUOI |
| Description: |
In photo that has "Erie" written all over it-note the space for the center siding, and the Erie "traffic light" signal in the distance, the X2000 meets BUOI just east of town. The only thing better would be a couple of EL SD45s-or maybe SD60s by this time-on the freight. |

Phoebe reborn?? |
| Description: |
Not exactly. In 1993, the X2000, a prototype for what would become the Acela, toured the eastern US and CP. It ran from Philadelphia to Buffalo via Binghamton. Here we see it meeting BUOI at Ellistown Rd east of Waverly. Thats one of Eries variety of signals on track 2. |

Fogged |
| Description: |
The day was gloomy enough, but that camera had a light leak, so the rear of this 53 car BUOI approaching MP 253 is a bit fogged. |
