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 easy 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. These were a pair of semaphores up til February of that year. |
