557 and a semaphore |
| Description: |
The signal at MP 247 was fairly easy to get to-there was a maintenance road access right off NY 17C, all you had to know was where to turn, and have a long lens ready. It was one of a half dozen Erie semaphores still standing at that time. They would last into the 21st century. Here we see a 557 rolling west behind a typical mix of a GP9u and SD40. |

Long shadows |

The shadows of late afternoon are greeting 557 as it goes west with 20 stack platforms, 22 COFC and 21 freight. Note the semaphore on track 2 at far left behind the train, lit by the sun. |
