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. |

By the station |
| Description: |
Or where it used to be. OIBU and today's 51 cars pull up to the place where the Erie station once stood, and where I am standing now. It was a large structure, similar to most of the larger town Erie stations, such as Kent OH, or Port Jervis. It was razed shortly after CR was formed in 1976. The freight house still stands, seen beyond the Chenango St bridge. At this time in 1991, there were still offices in the building, but it too would meet the wrecking ball in the late 90s. |

This is different |
| Description: |
CNW power was not common on the Tier. On the Chicago Line, youd see it fairly often on PXSE or NPSE, both connections off Union Pacific that used the Northwestern to bridge the gap from Fremont Neb to Chicago, with the power running through. These guys got lost somehow, and wound up on OIBU, stopped here at Owego to check for a hot journal on one of its 119 cars, the train having tripped the detector at MP 230.45 near Campville. Too bad it wasnt an hour earlier-the light would have been ideal!! |

Coal on the old LV |
| Description: |
One of the few remaining segments of the Lehigh Valley in New York was the line from Sayre PA to Ludlowville, north of Ithaca. It was a good moneymaker for Conrail, as it hosted three coal trains weekly going to the NYSEG plant there, as well as salt loads out from Cargill. Occasionally Cornell would get coal for its boilers. This train has just changed ends at Sayre and is sitting by the former station, now a restaurant, as it gets ready to go north. |

Stacks in the fog |
| Description: |
An early October morning finds TV 301 heading west at Hiawatha Rd in Owego, passing signal 233-1, which would be removed when the new radio alarm detector was installed at Tioga Center a few years later. If you look closely, you can see the extra light below the main head. This light diplays "hot box" if the detector at Campville, MP 230, gets a hit on a hot axle, and would set the signal red. I only saw it happen once. |

The milepost to the right of BUOI gives away the location as the train approaches Hornell and a pick up at Morrison Knudsen. To the left of the train, next to the pole line, you can see a semaphore in the approach position. There were a pair of semaphores there, across from each other. It was not an easy location to access, hence there are few photos of that set, unlike the Tioga Center blades, which you could shoot from the shoulder of NY 17C. The train is on track 1, the "fast" track, with a 40 MPH speed limit. Track 2, the "D&H main", so called becaise some Conrail dispatchers would put D&H trackage rights trains on it, had a section of 25 MPH and a section of 10 MPH speed restrictions, making for a very slow trip to River Jct. |

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. |

Different view |
| Description: |
In a view not often seen, OIBU rolls across the diamond at BD, which is smack on the Court St overpass. The track going under the train is the former DLW Syracuse & Utica Branch, now used by CP to reach the D&H main toward Oneonta. |
