Approaching the tunnel |
| Description: |
There was a connection on the River Line south of North Bergen yard to the old Erie tunnels that once were the access to the Jersey City terminal, passing under the DLW and the south end of the palisades. SEOI is about to enter, and will connect on the other side with the National Docks Secondary to get into Oak Island with its 69 cars. |

Power move |
| Description: |
Conrail, which could run some interesting power consists, usually didnt use slugs on the road. This must be a power move, and the 1107 is being reassigned. Its trailing on SEOI. |

Big power |
| Description: |
The plethora of 4 motor power did not mean the big units were excluded. A trio of six axles, a GE and two EMD's, roll this westbound past Dewitt. |

By in a blur |
| Description: |
OIBU rolls 57 cars west on a gloomy day. I always went out no matter what the weather, but today was a little too dark to get a good shutter speed, blurring the lead unit. |

Rolling into the sun |

And on to Buffalo. OIBU approaches one of the private crossings along NY 17C between Campville and Owego. Some fall color still lingers on the hills in this late October view. |
