Nicely posed |
| Description: |
Or, dont block the crossing. NYSW 3614 sits at the Marathon station in between runs to Cortland. The weather must not be too bad today. Festival goers are not bundled up against the elements, as they usually are for this event, which is notorious for its awful weather. |

River Road |
| Description: |
From Messengerville, where the"line crosses NY 392, to Cortland, it is followed by River Road, a dirt road that gets quite muddy at times. That didnt stop the chasers, and we see the south end of the train rolling along north of Messengerville. |

Not only did NYSW have a passenger train with an SD45 and a C430, but also this caboose on display. Makes for an interesting scene as we look from south of the station. |
