On the ex Mopac |
| Description: |
If I had time and was heading to Little Rock from the north, Id take US 67 south. North of Newport, the road was next to the ex MP main most of the way. Sometimes I saw something and was able to take a photo, like this mixed bag near Hoxie |

View from the truck |
| Description: |
After I went to driving school, JB Hunt sent me out with a trainer for several weeks. We worked as a team, switching off the driving. We were rolling down I 57 one day, my trainer driving and me riding. I saw this UP train approaching from the east on the ex C&EI, and was able to get shot of it going away as it passed under the highway. The trailing unit, ex MP, is on familiar turf. Some days you win one. |

Eastbound past the park |
| Description: |
An eastbound drifts downhill toward Altoona past the park at the curve. Conrail often mixed in 4 axle power on many trains, even on heavy grades. Odd as it sounds, seeing a GP 38 in the Alleghenies was not that uncommon. Check out the Reading hoppers, many of which lasted well into the 90's in coal service. |

BUOI in the corn |
| Description: |
BUOI rolls east past a stubble cornfield near Arkport as it heads for Hornell, Upstate NY can be beautiful in the winter as the low light and golden colors warm the scene-if you can stand the cold temperatures. It was in the mid 20s this day. |

Broad valley |
| Description: |
One of the things I enjoy about the west end of the Tier is some of the wider vistas between Hornell and Letchworth Park, such as this scene from the NY 70 overpass near Canaeraga.BUOI rolls east with 100 cars. |

Around the curve |
| Description: |
TV 301 rounds the big curve near Cochecton at MP 131 alongside NY 97. It was a great place to shoot a train, through it works better with two or three units. Four is really one too many. |

Off the bridge |

TV 301 rolls off the big through truss bridge over the East Branch of the Delaware. The clearance above the double stacks shows why the Erie was the preferred high and wide route in the east. |
