Old guard |
| Description: |
No not the SD60I, which was almost new then. The semaphore, which has been in place there since the 20s. It will soon fall, as Conrail will single track the line from Elmira to Waverly later in the year. The train is BUAL, a road freight originating at Frontier Yard in Buffalo, terminating in Allentown after a trip down the ex LV via Towanda and Wilkes Barre, and the Lehigh Gorge. Conrail alternated their approach on this train, as it changed its western origin several times over the years, most often running out of Gang Mills. Today's effort takes 128 cars east, and is about to take the connecting track to reach the ex LV at Sayre. |
