Title:
Down on
Description:
41T rolls west at Waverly behind a pair of GCFX leasers, with two CN units along to roll its 26 cars west. The track at far right is the connection to the Lehigh Line and Ithaca Branch, used by coal trains to Milliken, and trains to the Cargill mine adjacent to the power plant.

Title:
Multi modal
Description:
Not in the way youd expect. 30T sits at the ex DLW station waiting for a crew, while a Broome Transit bus crosses overhead on Chenango St. Its either a 28-Robinson St or 40-Chenango St; both use Chenango out of downtown, with the 28 turning onto Robinson to head to the end of the line at the Binghamton Psych Center. The 28 was good for seeing the action at Bevier St, since it also did a loop up Broad Av in both directions. Many a morning I watched NS 206 while on that run. The bus is one of the 23 Orion 6 coaches acquired by BC Transit in 2000.

Title:
Just one
Description:
Sometimes it wasnt so much a chase, as I heard the train and ran it down, just to see what the power was and get a shot, then head back home. Owego was an easy spot to do this, since it was close to the house, and I could usually beat a train there with a little heads up, or if I saw it coming through Endwell on my way home. Today is one of those days, and I caught 41T rolling at Miller Beach Rd in Owego behind diverse mix of power with 52 cars.

Way off
Description:
If you hustled after you got off NY 17 at Chemung, you might beat a westbound to Wellsburg, where NY 427 gradually got closer to the tracks. That approach did allow some panoramic shots, such as this 31T rolling 70 cars west, seen from the shoulder of NY 427 east of Wellsburg.
