I chased the coal train to Otego, where I caught it off the I 88 access at exit 12. The sun was getting low, and I was dodging shadows, just able to get one more shot of the northbound. |

Gaining speed |
| Description: |
13T rolls toward the PA 706 underpass, picking up speed as it heads down the old DLW. The BNSF unit is notable, though not uncommon on this train, which seemed to get western power pretty routinely. The trailing unit is the real surprise, a B40-8. NS did not have many of these, and none purchased by NS itself. This is a legacy CR unit. |

Rolling on through |

A shot I liked to get, though I didnt do it often because you had to stand in the traffic lane on NY 7 to do it, was this view of a southbound coming off the Susquehanna River bridge from Sidney into Bainbridge. I braved the traffic(it was Sunday, not that it makes a lot of difference here) to get this shot of 269 with an ex Conrail leader. |

Three today |
| Description: |
Trains 268 and 269 were notable for almost always getting a pair of GEs. Once in a while, an EMD would sneak in, and almost never would there be three units or foreign power. Today is exceptional, as 268 has a trio of units, and an ex CR leader, seen on the famous high bridge. |

Waited a long time for this |
| Description: |
Train 205 rolls across the Chemung River just after the sun dipped too low to light up the train. My friend Sam Botts and I had stood on the Main St bridge for about an hour anticipating a 13T with some kind of off line power. We were a little surprised when 205 showed. It was really cold that day-low 20s-and now almost dark. We called it quits after this. Thats railfanning!! |

Coal train |
| Description: |
Coal trains to AES Milliken Station north of Ithaca on the ex LV followed Conrails pattern in the NS era, running off the Southern Tier at Waverly onto the connection the the ex LV at Sayre, running the power around the train, then going north. Here we see a train that has just had the power cut off to change ends. Note the number boards on the lead unit, an ex LMS lease unit, with their CNJ typeface. |

CNJ number boards |
| Description: |
The leader on this coal train to Milliken has an unusual typeface for power in this era. It looks starkly reminiscent of the font the Jersey Central used. Nothing wrong with that!! |

Odd arrangement |
| Description: |
This is 12T, which apparently was picked up by Taylor-Binghamton train 513, and tacked onto the rear. My guess is 12Ts crew outlawed, and this was how the train got to Binghamton for a Tier crew. |

Its basically a roster shot, even if it is on a moving train. This ex CSX unit was in the middle of the consist on an eastbound NS train. Its now lettered GECX, for GE Leasing. No mistaking the heritage, even if it is hard to tell the unit number. |
