Almost dark |
| Description: |
ML440 rolls east with 105 racks just as it was getting to dark for photos. CR 745 is one of a group of ex LMS units from a fleet shared with CN. CR did not renumber the units when it fully acquired them, hence the out of sequence numbers. |

On the way home |
| Description: |
Me, anyway. Dont know about the crew on this OIBU behind a pair of new widecab C40s I caught while riding home from work in Owego. I had two miles of road along the Tier between Owego and Campville, and saw trains a surprising number of times here. |

ML 401 mix |
| Description: |
ML 401 was the train that ran mostly empty auto racks from Doremus Av unloading facility in Newark to Buffalo via the Tier. Today it has 44 general freight ahead of its 48 racks, so either the merchandise was really light and they combined it with OIBU, or it was really heavy and this was overflow. We see it at Waverly passing the iconic Ted Clarks Busy Market, which was still there when I visited this past July. |

No, not the Disney feature!! In this case, its the Chemung River, which we see at left from the connector bridge at Wellsburg in this view of ML 401 approaching the automatic signal 266-1. In another month, the weather will warm up enough to cause a lot of snow melt, which will put the river at the bottom of this bridge, helping create a massive ice dam. |

One of many |
| Description: |
The Southern Tier was full of semaphore signals, though they were concentrated in several places. One of those places was in the Canisteo valley, between MP 306 and 320, where there were a number of them on both tracks 1 and 2. TV 203 passes an eastbound signal as it heads west near Cameron Mills. |

Most of the time, Id catch trains here in the late afternoon, since Id be chasing after work. This is a great afternoon shot, as the train is rolling right into the sun. Middle of the day photos are not nose lit, but are nicely side lit. We see TV 203 in the side light as it comes around the big curve and under the NY 427 overpass. |

Single soon |
| Description: |
Conrail had a plan to single track the Tier as far east as Binghamton. The plan was to start at CP River, roughly where the old NT tower was, and work east. This was the first section to be done-the segment from NT to Buffalo had been done by EL. We see TV 203 on the section to be single tracked from an old Erie steel bridge, now closed to traffic. There is a semaphore here on track 1, partly obscured by the diesel exhaust, which will be removed during the single track project. For now, it looks good as the train rolls down the Canaseraga Creek valley into Livingston County on the line as Erie built it. In a couple of years, track 2, on the right, will be gone. |

Flowers and a prop |
| Description: |
Many of the roadways were either planted with widlflowers, or they just grew there, which is pretty likely, and I tried to get them in a photo when possible. Waverly must have been built by a model railroader, as there are many building there that you would think were pulled off someones layout. Ted Clarks, behind the train, is one such, and always made a good photo prop from the access road to NY 17 from US 220. |

We were used to seeing TV 203, though usually it was rolling over Starrucca, or in the Canisteo valley. Seeing it on the Chicago Line was a new experience. Good as it was to see it in a different setting, the Tier is much more scenic. Today its rolling 80 stacks, 15 TOFC and 4 COFC west. |

Coal on the high bridge |
| Description: |
An eastbound coal train crosses the Portage bridge as seen from the falls below in Letchworth State Park. This is the highest bridge on the Conrail system at 240 feet above the Genesee River. It was built by the Erie in 1875 after a previous wooden bridge burned. As I write this in February 2015, its still in service at 140 years old. NS plans to replace it with a new bridge just to the south of the present structure. At one time, the Pennsys Rochester Branch ran up through the gorge. Some of the right of way can still be seen if you know where to look, and bridge piers can be seen in the river from the NY 436 bridge at Portageville. That line was abandoned in 1962. |

Road train meets local |
| Description: |
Conrail kept an engine at Woodard on the Montreal Secondary to work locals on the line to Oswego. Here we see MSBU with a pair of C40-8s and 12 cars passing the B23 holding down the local job there. |

OIBU around the curve |
| Description: |
After a long more or less straight run along the George F Highway from JC, the railroad took a hard turn to the right as it entered Endwell. This was a 45 MPH curve in EL days, when the speed here was 50. A pair of new C40-8Ws roll into it as they head for Elmira and Buffalo. |

ELOI and new power |
| Description: |
ELOI runs alongside NY 17C with a pair of new C40s and 33 cars. This train was notable in that ELOI only sporadically got east of Gang Mills-it usually terminated there, its cars forwarded by BUOI; and that it had new power. The train usually got a motley assortment of whatever was available at Elkhart, though sometimes that was western units off UP connections. |
