Wait for it... |
| Description: |
OIBU sits at the signal on track 1, waiting for TV 303 to pass, cross over from track 2, and clear. Then it will head west. The signal at right governs moves off track 3-the former DLW-to the Erie side here at West BD, installed in 1959 as part of the consolidation of Erie and DLW rights of way on the Tier. |

On the Tier |
| Description: |
The XWB train has pulled off the Lehigh Line and is now fully on the Tier. The groundman has closed up the switches-its all hand throw-and will get a taxi up to the head end. Meanwhile, the train poses in front of Ted Clarks, a landmark for photos here for many years, and still in business as I write this. |
