Coal on the River Line |
Description: |
The River Line, the ex NYC West Shore, was known during Conrail years as a freight and intermodal conduit. There was some coal traffic on the line, for an Orange-Rockland power plant at Roseton. One of those trains, UAM 4, is rolling though North Bergen behind a set of power only CR would put on a coal train. |

Dark day for BUOI |
Description: |
While in Elmira that day, I also caught BUOI while waiting on SLN 5. It has only two units for its 85 cars, of which four are 12 wheel depressed center flats. Climbing up Gulf Summit will be a chore the crew is undoubtedly looking forward to in the gloom. |
