Everything all at once
Title:  Everything all at once
Description:  Seems it never rains but it pours. If theres one train, theres two. OIBU gets rolling west after working Binghamton, as BUME waits for it to clear so it can get up onto the Buffalo Runner, get a new crew, and head for its Guilford connection at Mechanicville.

Six axles today
Title:  Six axles today
Description:  CR ran whatever was handy on OIBU, though it tended to get six axle power most of the time. There had been a spate of 4 motors on the train at this time, so this pair of big GEs was something of a return to normal.

Eastbound coal
Title:  Eastbound coal
Description:  An eastbound coal train for NYSEGs Goudy station in Johnson City splits the semaphores at Tioga Center behind a single unit. Note the bottom light on the westbound signal is lit. A westbound is in the block, so well get two here. The crossing gate and relay case sit on the former LV Auburn Branch right of way.

Block limit stations
Title:  Block limit stations
Description:  Since the Ithaca Branch was Form D territory, there were block stations to designate track blocks. We see a 103 car UNE train for Milliken passing two of them. Rena, on the left, governs the Ithaca Branch; Croft, on the right, is on the Lehigh Secondary. There is also one at the other end of the secondary where it meets the Southern Tier, designated Wave, in Waverly.

Making him wait
Title:  Making him wait
Description:  Conrail was not shy about making the D&H wait on the Tier, but occasionally practicality and common sense won out. Today is one of those days, as BUME rolls 49 cars through West BD on track 2, headed for East Binghamton, while an XCL empty coal train cools its heels on the former DLW, having come out track 3 from downtown with 35 hoppers for Clearfield PA. That's the Vestal Spur in the lower right corner, the remaining portion of what was the DLW's 70 MPH main line. It now runs a few miles out to Vestal to serve the few remaining local customers.

Underway
Title:  Underway
Description:  The XCL train starts west, having gotten the board now that CP has cleared. It will be a gloomy trip to Gang Mills, as the typical Southern Tier gloom is hanging low. That lumpy track at right is the Vestal Spur. When NS got the line in the 1999 split, it started running C40-9's on that line-like it did everywhere else. By 2002, it bit the bullet and spent a bunch of money on ties and resurfacing, which it sorely needed after years of Conrail running heavy coal trains on it to the NYSEG power plant several times a week, but doing virtually no maintenance. The light building at far right is the NY State office building, affectionately known as the "SOB". It had a fire in the basement in 1981, and was unoccupied for 15 years while the PCB's released from electrical equipment were cleaned up. It was the poster child for government efficiency in NY.

Coal at the semaphores
Title:  Coal at the semaphores
Description:  An eastbound loaded UNE coal train for the Goudy plant in Johnson City rolls through the twin semaphores at Tioga Center behind a single C40-8. Its an easy pull for the GE with only 42 cars. Note the light is lit green on the westbound signal. The meet will happen somewhere between here and MP 240, probably just east of town where the tracks are inaccessible.

Rounding the curve
Title:  Rounding the curve
Description:  This spot was a good place for photo, though most fans paid more attention to the semaphores a mile to the east. Ayres Rd, which crossed the tracks at the signals, came back around and went over them on a bridge. By this time, the bridge was closed and the deck removed, but the end of it was still a good spot. We see OIBU rolling west approaching it, at the same spot where Bob Wilt caught the LV Sayre Turn, which ran on the now abandoned LV Auburn Branch, being overtaken by an EL westbound, seen on page 79 of EL in Color, Vol 2.

Description:  OIBU rolls out of downtown Endicott along North St, and is about to pass the site of the Erie station, torn down in 1976 shortly after Conrail take over of the EL. The white building at right of the train in the distance is part of the IBM complex.

Description:  OICG, one of the several incarnations of the train that connected upstate NY to eastern PA and Jersey via the Lehigh Line-it also was ALCG and ALBU-rolls north through a wintry cornfield as it makes its way to Sayre, and then onto the Southern Tier at Waverly. It will terminate at Gang Mills yard near Corning with today's train of 94 cars.

Description:  Sunny days in the winter usually meant cold. The week between Christmas and New Years in 1989 lived up to that reputation, being one of the coldest weeks of the year. It didnt matter much to this TV 203, running right on time at BD.

Hi-low
Title:  Hi-low
Description:  Erie seemed to be unable to settle on a single type of hardward for their signals. They had searchlights, tri light clusters, traffic light types, and of course the many semaphores that were still in service at the date of this photo. Another twist was this high and low pair at Belmont, seen with an XBP coal train.

Used to be busy here
Title:  Used to be busy here
Description:  A Conrail XBP empty coal train on the Meadville Line, once ELs Mahoning Division 4th sub, crosses the ex Pennsy Buffalo Line, also a Conrail operation, at the location of X tower. Now, the tower is long gone, and its CP Olean. At one time, this was a busy place, with several dozen train per day, most of them EL. There will be half a dozen moves here today, maybe.

Once busy, now a memory
Title:  Once busy, now a memory
Description:  An XBP coal train passes Cuba Jct, once a much busier place than it is at the date of this photo. The train is on the Meadville Line, going from single track to double for the 11 miles into Olean. There were eastbound and westbound sidings here in Erie days. The empty roadbed to the left was the Erie/EL River Line, which followed the Genesee River to NT tower, near Hunt, where it joined the Buffalo Sub. It crossed the river near Belfast on one of Eries massive steel bridges. A busy route when it was EL-it was the preferred route for most frieghts, since it had a much better gradient than the main line through Wellsville-it was abandoned almost immediately after Conrail startup. They dynamited the bridge in the early 80s. Of note, and not visible in this photo, the PRR also had a branch to Rochester that left the Buffalo Line at Olean, and passed under the River Line just east of here, taking a river level route up through Letchworth Park.

Used to be X tower
Title:  Used to be X tower
Description:  The tower actually stood across the EL, in the northwest quadrant of the crossing, a half mile west of the Olean station. CR tore it down early in its existence when they were working furiously to downgrade the former EL lines. It really wasnt needed after the CR startup anyway, since traffic here declined from several dozen trains/day to a handful on both lines. It almost could have been made an automatic interlocking. So a once elegant towers work is now done by a guy a couple hundred miles away, and a metal box. Ah, progress!!
