Hiding out in Hillburn |
| Description: |
BUOI is working the Hillburn yard, just west of Suffern on the former Erie, just 31 miles from Jersey City. The third unit, 6640 shares a number with an ex BN F45 on the NYSW. I saw both within a couple of weeks of each other. Never caught them at the same time, though. |

ENBU X splits the signals at Dalmatia, about 25 miles north of Harrisburg. The train hasnt gotten close enough to the southbound signal to turn it on yet. |

Great view |
| Description: |
One of the more panoramic views of the Tier, but a hard one to get, since you could only get this shot sunlit late in the day in the summer, and there was no place convenient to park, was this shot of the line from the hill on Watson Blvd as it approached Endwell. When it worked, it was a great shot. Here it is with OIBU rolling west with 41 cars on a Friday afternoon. |

More familiar power |
| Description: |
I had just seen a train with CNW power. Always a good thing, but Texans are more familiar with these units, though the CR SD 60 may be a little foreign to them. The trailing unit is one of the ex MP units UP removed the controls from and desgnated as a trailing only unit. Note the "B" in the numberboard to indicate such. |
