All present and accounted for.
Title:  All present and accounted for.
Description:  The two jobs that will interchange with the Owego & Harford met at Owego. We see D 22, the Mills Job, coming toward us with a commonplace set of GP 9us. It is meeting NS local H2A(they pick those symbols out of a hat, really) with GP 38 rebuild 5577 on the east end. Between the two trains are a total of five cars.

Local in the snow
Title:  Local in the snow
Description:  A former CR GP15 and a GP 38 have 4 cars of local H2A(I swear, NS picks their symbols out of a hat!!) under control at Owego. The train is based in Elmira, and works as far east as Owego, much as CR's WEEL39 did in years past. They will be switching the Ward & Van Scoy mill, whose tower is seen behind the train.

You know where you are
Title:  You know where you are
Description:  H2A is in the siding, which acts like a running track, at MP 236, just east of the Owego station. They are working the Ward & Van Scoy grain mill, and will soon head west after meeting 41T and CPs D 22.

Once there were two
Title:  Once there were two
Description:  H2A rolls toward Ayers Rd in Tioga Center. Once there were two railroads here, the EL and the LV. The Lehigh was pulled up almost immediately at Conrail startup, leaving just the EL line, on which the train is running. The LV right of way is where the car is parked.
