Overtaken
Title:  Overtaken
Description:  BUOI waits at Gang Mills yard as CP train 310 blasts past behind a pair of lease units. This view gives a good look at the Erie yard, which still has its water tower, and adjacent US 15/NY 417, now I 99. As part of the upgrade project making the road an interstate, the bridge I'm standing on was removed.
