OIEL arriving
Title:  OIEL arriving
Description:  OIEL arrives at Salamanca on the ex EL Mahoning Division with his train of 68 cars, including a block of TOFC up front. These are obviously not priority trailers. Hes coordinating with ELOI, who is working the yard there at the same time. A year later, I moved to Binghamton, where I lived for 18 years. This was the only time I ever saw both of these trains on the same day, never mind the same location.

Off the bridge
Title:  Off the bridge
Description:  TV 301 rolls off the East Branch bridge over the Delaware. I always enjoyed seeing how much clearance the stacks had on this bridge. It was amazing how much clearance the Erie had on some of its structures.

On the bridge
Title:  On the bridge
