Out of the valley |
| Description: |
DABU rolls west under the county road overpass at Carson, MP 325. The view here is dramatic, as the tracks appear to be coming right out of a mountain. This will be a single track railroad the following year. |

Erie signals |
| Description: |
DABU rolls past the home signal at CP HORN, which prior to Conrail was ZY on the EL. The Erie signals are still in place guarding the interlocking, which was the east entrance to the massive Hornell yard, and now largely a ghost town. |

Another semaphore |
| Description: |
We all knew the Erie semaphores were on borrowed time, as Conrail had announced they planned to single track the Tier west of Binghamton. These signals had been installed in the 1920s, and were nearing 75 years in service. The segment from River Jct to Hornell had been single tracked the previous year, and now this section from Hornell to Gang Mills was on the chopping block. We made an effort to shoot them all, as here with DABU rolling past one of the blades near MP 316. |

| Description: |
Jacksons Pumpkin Farm was a popular destination in the fall, when the pumpkins came in and they set up a whole fantasy land at their main location out on NY 17C, across the tracks from this view. They kept a small tent here by the fields along the tracks for smaller parties in the summer. We see BUOI rolling past on a July afternoon. Mot much going on for the passing train's 53 cars to interrupt. |

Local switching |
| Description: |
BUOI and OIBU, though they were through trains, did switch customers at locations not served by locals, mostly on the Delaware Division. This BUOI is working at a feed mill in Arkport in the snow, which must have been a delight for the ground man. I can't help picturing a set of EL GP 7's handling this task. |

TV 26 has just climbed up out of the Genesee valley with its 5 COFC and 40 auto racks, where it crossed Portage Bridge, and is now approximately at the location of the ELs NT tower, where the River Line went west to join the main at Cuba Jct. That line is lone gone by now, but the traffic on the former Buffalo Sub is pretty good today. |

Along the rocks |
| Description: |
One of the more interesting, but hard to get, shots was this on along the rock ledge west of Waverly. TV 202 is making its way east under O'Brien's Inn, a landmark along the cliff for many years. The hard part about this shot was that you had to park on the shoulder of NY 17 east, an expressway, and climb up a steep embankment, risking getting run off(or tickeyed) by the state troopers. The location is just as you approach the exit 60 off ramp. |

X2000 meet BUOI |
| Description: |
In photo that has "Erie" written all over it-note the space for the center siding, and the Erie "traffic light" signal in the distance, the X2000 meets BUOI just east of town. The only thing better would be a couple of EL SD45s-or maybe SD60s by this time-on the freight. |

Phoebe reborn?? |
| Description: |
Not exactly. In 1993, the X2000, a prototype for what would become the Acela, toured the eastern US and CP. It ran from Philadelphia to Buffalo via Binghamton. Here we see it meeting BUOI at Ellistown Rd east of Waverly. Thats one of Eries variety of signals on track 2. |

Fogged |
| Description: |
The day was gloomy enough, but that camera had a light leak, so the rear of this 53 car BUOI approaching MP 253 is a bit fogged. |
