Ruin and rubble |
| Description: |
41T is ready to go as it sits next to the rubble from the set out tracks that once adjoined the DLW station. The NRHS equipment was moved at the time the new ballpark was built, and some of the debris still remains a dozen years later. |

Dark units over the river |
| Description: |
41T gets its all black consist underway across the Chenango River on a gloomy afternoon. The conditions will improve markedly by the time the train reaches Owego. At this time, it was common to see IC units on this train, mostly SD 40's, but occasionally SD 70's would show. I think I've seen more IC power on the Southern Tier than on the IC itself. |

Making hay while the sun shines |
| Description: |
Or in this case, cutting down the corn stalks. The heavy overcast at Binghamton has yielded to bright sun at Miller Beach Rd, as 41T rolls its 62 cars west past a grain wagon that carries the colors of a now vanquished granger road. |

12T on a typical Tier day |
| Description: |
12T crosses the Chenango River on a typically bright Binghamton day. Power is even dark, and not the usual CN units, though the trailing unit is a surprise for anyone expecting a solid set of NS black. |

Old power in the lead |
| Description: |
41T typically got a set of CNs new SD75s or GEs, or some combination of them. Occasionally an older unit would get in the mix, as well as IC units. Here we see one such mixed set crossing the Chenango River on its way out of Binghamton |

From the connector |
| Description: |
After many years of dithering about where to locate the bridge, NYSDOT finally decided to site a Susquehanna crossing at exit 66 on NY 17, the Apalachin exit. This turned out to be a good thing for me, as it eliminated the need for me to have to go through Endicott most of the time, and also provided a good place to get a shot of a westbound, such as this 41T rolling toward Owego. |

On Wisconsin |
| Description: |
Wisconsin Central in this case. Train 41T makes its way through East Binghamton as it heads toward BD and home rails for the trip to Buffalo with a GP 40-2 in the mix. Seeing various component roads in the mix was not taht unusual-the next unit is a repainted IC unit-but the WC power tended to be SD 45's, and four axle power was not that common. Todays train has 31 cars. |

41T in the gloom |
| Description: |
Weather in Binghamton was not always sunny. Of course, thats when all the good stuff ran. Todays 41T follows that pattern, with a WC unit in the mix as the train heads for BD on a cloudy day. |
