Approaching Binghamton |
| Description: |
An intermodal train, Im guessing TV 78, about to roll into Johnson City on its approach to Binghamton. This area has seen a lot of change over the years. River Plaza to the left of the lead unit, has been mostly empty for years. The GE building above the train is now BAE Systems. To its right is now a Home Depot. The smokestack above the lead unit belongs to NYSEG's Goudy plant, a long time Conrail customer. It closed around 2005. Of course, Conrail itself is now a memory. |

Around the curve |
| Description: |
TV 301 rounds the big curve near Cochecton at MP 131 alongside NY 97. It was a great place to shoot a train, through it works better with two or three units. Four is really one too many. |

Off the bridge |
| Description: |
TV 301 rolls off the big through truss bridge over the East Branch of the Delaware. The clearance above the double stacks shows why the Erie was the preferred high and wide route in the east. |

Moodna Creek, for which the viaduct is named, is a small waterway at the west end of the bridge, just before it crosses NY 94. At this point, the tracks are 193 feet above the creek bed, with TV 301 riding them. |
