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 |
| 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. |

One of the larger rivers the Erie crossed on its way to Binghamton was the Lackawaxen River at Lackawaxen, which it crossed on this truss bridge, where we see TV 301 this gloomy day. |

ML 440 with lease units |
| Description: |
Conrail had a fleet of lease units under a subsidiary called Locomotive Leasing Services that primarily was shared with CN on a seasonal basis. By 1995 these units were coming home, and found their way onto many CR trains. Here one of them teams with a pair of SD40-2s to roll 20 COFC and 52 auto racks east on my 36th birthday. |
