Rolling in the sun
Title:  Rolling in the sun
Description:  For a late afternoon northbound, there were not too many decently lit shots going north. One that worked was this view at Afton, where there was enough angle to shoot from the shoulder of NY 7. We see a PLMT rolling toward the signal at GR behind a mix of power.

Approaching the signal
Title:  Approaching the signal
Description:  The signal gantry at GR is well known, and easy to get a shot of, due to being so close to the road. PLMT rolls up to it as the afternoon rolls on into evening.

Hold em back
Title:  Hold em back
Description:  This D&H unit was trailing RPPY at Crocker Hill Rd in Port Crane, presumably for dynamic braking, but it may also just be a pusher being returned to Binghamton. Sometimes a northbound would drop a helper at Afton if there was a southbound coming fairly soon, with that train taking it back down the hill.
