Drab day |
Description: |
Id go out in pretty much anything, on the theory that trains ran no matter what, so it would be a good idea to record the action. Besides, the Tier weather being what it is, if I only went out on good days, Id see ten trains a year. Still, January could be especially bleak, sometimes with only 30% of the possible sun coming through. On one of those days, 557 rolls around the big curve at MP 231. I was the only one to witness the event. |

Along the river |
Description: |
The ex DLW line now operated by CP runs close to the Susquehanna through parts of Conklin. One good spot is where it crosses under the bridge from Kirkwood at the south end of Broome Corporate Park, where this photo was taken. In the winter it gives a good shot of a train here, in this case, 558 with a pair of SDs and 38 cars. |

167, or is it F1G?? |
Description: |
After NS took over running what had been trains 166 and 167, there were some symbol changes, though it took a while for them to become permanent. In the meanwhile, they sometimes took on NS alphabet soup symbols. They called this on F1G, seen here coming around the curve past the old Erie station. |
