12T
Title:  12T
Description:  One of the two NS trackage rights trains to run on CP south of Binghamton, 12T, rolls 52 cars through the north end of East Binghamton behind the usual home road power, and a western visitor in the form of an H1 BNSF unit. While the other train pair, 30 and 31T got CN power routinely, 12 and 13T could get anything, and it was not uncommon to see UP and BNSF power, but others as well. I have seen Wisconsin Central and Montana Rail Link units on these trains.
