Leaning to the curve |
| Description: |
The line through Smithboro had a long tangent, then a curve as it came out of town and the tracks came back up to the road. It was an fasy shot of a westbound leaning into the curve giving an impression of high speed. |

Easy pickings |
| Description: |
The railroad is next to NY 17C for a good part of the trip between Endicott and Waverly, making for great access, and one of the reasons this line is so*easy to chase. Heres 557 rolling west, seen from the shoulder of the road. It has just passed the signal pair at MP 242-you can see 242-2 over the first container, and 242-1 to the left of the second red box. Thfse were a pair of semaphores up til February of that year. |
