The other shot |
| Description: |
Tioga Center was known for the pair of semaphores that were opposite each other at the Ayres Rd crossing a mile of so east of this location, and that was "the" shot there. I always loved the cormfield and hills, but the lighting didnt usually favor that shot, since the train was going to be dark almost all the time. I took advantage of one of the Southern Tiers many cloudy days to get 261 there in more even light. |

Four 40s pulling hard |
| Description: |
Train 253s SDs are pulling hard as they struggle toward Belden Tunnel. This was mostly a merchandise train to St Luc, and it was typically maxing out its tonnage ratings. Fortunately, another ten minutes, and it will be downhill into Afton. |
