Across the pond |
| Description: |
This dark side view of 13T from across the pond adjacent to Watson Blvd shows the variety that often turned up on this train. Not only a western visitor from UP, but also an older model, an SD 60. Today is a modest effort, only 24 cars heading for Allentown. |

Interesting power for 206 |
| Description: |
Train 206 usually got a pair of GEs, once in a while an EMD, almost always C40s with an occasional SD 60 or 70. Today there must have been a problem, as one of the local service SD40 rebuilds is leading the train off the Chenango River bridge, seen from Water St. |

Train 168 works hard behind an ex Conrail SD 50 and a GE as it rolls a mix of 107 TOFC cars and stack platforms toward Belden tunnel. This was not an uncommon train length for this move. Eventually, it was split into two trains, the added schedules being 22K/23K, running to Ayer, with 205/206 running to a new facility at Mechanicville on the site of the old B&M yard there. |

Tiptoe through the tulips |
| Description: |
Or, as is more typical of New York state in the summer, the Queen Annes lace. Train 169 picks its way slowly through Oneonta where there was once a lot more trackage and a lot less flowers, as it makes its way down to OG and the single track south. |

Pole line |
| Description: |
12T rolls 55 cars west down the long tangent coming into Endwell, following the long pole line that still carries communication and signal for the Tier. It will be gone in a few years when NS single tracks west of Johnson. |

Splash of color |

41T rolls 42 cars around the big curve west of Campville, the orange nose of the lead unit providing some color in an otherwise mostly gray landscape. |

Winter fields |

The cornfield that a few months ago was full of waving corn, is now snow covered stubble as 41T rolls past with its usual CN power. |

Another 12T, more off line power |
| Description: |
Todays leader on 12T is a new UP SD79ACe, followed by an NS unit, and an FURX unit recently acquired from BNSF, still carrying their paint scheme. The set is wheeling 69 cars west past Chemung, which has gotten heavily treed in over the years. Compare with shots from the 90s in my Conrail or CP on the Southern Tier albums. |

12T with a mix |
| Description: |
Of the NS trains that run the Tier, 12T seems to have the greatest power variety. I have seen BNSF, UP Wisconsin Central, MRL, IC , SOO and various lease units on the train. Today ranks right up there, with a UP unit leading, and a FURX ex BNSF unit trailing. We see the train at Chemung, where it is interesting to note how the foliage has grown over the years. Look at some of the shots in my albums taken in the early 90s, when there was hardly a tree here. Now you cant see around the curve to the old Erie station. |

Yard 1 |

A pair of geeps in a scene they will never recreate on the road, work 164s train at the East Binghamton yard. Two units, two schemes-nothing much has changed on the D&H!! Train 412 rolls to the south end behind NS power, at left. |
