College town |
Description: |
BUME rolls through Oneonta, home to a SUNY four year school, and where the former station-the large building at right-is now a bar called The Third Rail. Most of the students will be oblivious to the new NYSW B 40s that are now plying the line as they play beer pong. |

Grain west |
Description: |
ABBU was an empty grain train from the Port of Albany that ran as needed. As such, it was not a priority, and ran when a crew was available, so it would often get yarded at Binghamton. This one is now crewed and rolling out, and will shortly be headed west on the Tier. |

Short train, big bridge |

I have always been impressed by the size of the through truss here. It dominates a stack train, and dwarfs this short passenger extra. |
