New power |
| Description: |
A pair of new C40-8s aided by an SD 50 head north through Waverly, crossing NY 17C on their way to Ithaca. They are performing the heavy duty hauling for which they were acquired, taking 95 cars to the NYSEG Milliken plant just up Cayuga Lake from Ithaca. |

ELOI surprise |
| Description: |
ELOI has made a pick up at M-K Hornell, which was rebuilding a fleet of R 32 and R 46 subway cars for NYCTA at the time. Usually BUOI got this task, but it must have been running late, or heavy, and ELOI, which was usually a light train, made the pick up. Too bad we didnt know it was out there-it would have been three trains on the EL Main Line west of Hornell that day, an unheard of occurrence for us. |

West in the sun |
| Description: |
OIBU rolls 93 cars west near MP 250, having just passed the Tioga County transfer station, and a couple of semaphores, one of which can be seen to the right of the train. This was the spot where the LV Auburn Branch ducked under the EL to reach Sayre. |

Pulling |
| Description: |
OIBU has gotten back on his train and is now starting to pull its 50 cars west. We have here a good view of the station area. The concrete pad behind the lead unit is the location of thg Erie station. Under the middle of the overpass is the Erie freight house, the red brick building. It will be torn down in 1999. In the right background, we see the station tower on the DLW station, as well as the hteel frame of the Marconi tower, which was used to mount an antenna for an early radio application. To the left of the radio tower, we see the smokestack for the station powerhouse, which not only provided heat for the station, but also for the steam lUnes that heated the set out cars that were dropped or picked up here. |

Starting over the bridge |
| Description: |
The steelwork for the Chenango River bridge actually starts before the tracks are at the river bank, as the structure also vaults over Water St before veaching the water. OIBU is on this part of the bridge as we look up, about to cross the Chenango, and head out the west side. |

We were able to grab this shot along PA 171 where the tracks go away from the road at Red Rock. Thats my then girlfriend, now wife, Diane, getting a shot of the action too. |

13T arrives at Binghamton behind the unlikely combination of a BNSF warbonnet GE, and a CSX standard cab GE, with 34 cars in tow for Allentown. Binghamton was one of those places where anything could show up, and usually did. The NS era is proving to be no different in that regard than any previous era. |

As I have noted elsewhere in this album, 13T could sometimes show up with some surprises. Here its going through Endicott behind a pair of GEs. Not a big deal, except on is a BNSF unit still in red and silver, the other is a standard cab CSX unit. The train will meet H 88 at Binghamton in about 20 minutes. H 88 has a pair of BNSF AC4400s. The Tier was never boring!! |

Detour |
| Description: |
CSX would sometimes hand off overflow traffic to the NYSW. These trains, SU 403 and 404 on the Suskie, were obviously not high priority, as it would sometimes take 24 hours to get them from Jersey back onto CSX at Syracuse. Here we see one of them behind a Bright Future standard cab C40 and the surviving F45, 3636, just after taking the switch to the Syracuse branch at Chenago Forks. |

Western visitors |
| Description: |
13T approaches the NY 17C overpass on a gloomy afternoon, a pair of UP units leading. Of all the trains to come through here, 13T was most likely to have something unusual, especially if BNSF power was involved. I saw this train show up behind Santa Fe warbonnets, as well as ex BN Grinstein SD 70MACs. |

A little closer to home |
| Description: |
I lived just over the hill from this location, and it was an easy thing to get here for a shot at a pretty location, especially this day with the fall color going full out. Today was one of those days, as I caught 41T with 71 cars behind an NS standard cab GE, unusual because CN power almost always led on this train, and because by this time, wide cabs pretty much ruled the world, and the standard cabs had become something of a novelty. |

12T |
| Description: |
One of the two NS trackage rights trains to run on CP south of Binghamton, 12T, rolls 52 cars through the north end of East Binghamton behind the usual home road power, and a western visitor in the form of an H1 BNSF unit. While the other train pair, 30 and 31T got CN power routinely, 12 and 13T could get anything, and it was not uncommon to see UP and BNSF power, but others as well. I have seen Wisconsin Central and Montana Rail Link units on these trains. |
