Go fetch
Title:  Go fetch
Description:  If the yard was clogged and the yardmaster didnt have room for an inbound train, hed have the power cut off at the north end crossovers, leaving the train on the runner between there and BD. A yard job would go get the train later, when there was room to work it. Such is the case here, as a couple of rebuilt geeps have coupled on to a train left north of the crossovers and are now pulling it into the yard. That's Conklin Av(NY 7) overhead.

Everything but the kitchen sink
Title:  Everything but the kitchen sink
Description:  The 1990s and into the new millenium was an interesting time for motive power on the CP. They acquired a lot of second hand power and rebuilt some units. This 271 at Belden tunnel is a case in point. The leader?? Used. CP never had any SD45s. The second unit is a rebuilt GP 9, the third unit is an ex MP SD40-2 that was originally one of their general service units and di not have dynamic brakes. CP added them while they were on lease from GATX, then bought them. The white SD40-2 is ex KCS. Quite a mix

Interesting set

Description:  A four unit set of power leads train 165 with its 51 stack platforms and 34 freight across the Harpursville bridge. The odd duck in this flock is the third unit, one of the GP 9us that generally sees only yard service. It must have been in transit to another yard, though its position in the consist would mean it was working.

557 and a semaphore
Title:  557 and a semaphore
Description:  The signal at MP 247 was fairly easy to get to-there was a maintenance road access right off NY 17C, all you had to know was where to turn, and have a long lens ready. It was one of a half dozen Erie semaphores still standing at that time. They would last into the 21st century. Here we see a 557 rolling west behind a typical mix of a GP9u and SD40.

Lightning stripe in the snow.
Title:  Lightning stripe in the snow.
Description:  One of D 22s other assignments was to run the Owego & Harford interchange to Owego twice a week, part of the trackage rights that D&H received as a condition of Conrails start up. A variety of power ran these trains over the years, including a wide variety of Alcos. By 2003 the Alcos were gone, but you could still find interesting power on the train. Here we see it head west from the new bridge connecting NY 17C to NY 17 across the river at Apalachin.

Knock, knock , knocking on heavens door
Title:  Knock, knock , knocking on heavens door
Description:  Well, not exactly heaven, but probably a quit. D 22 has returned from its run south with an even dozen cars, and is waiting at Terrace Dr for clearance into the yard. The rebuilt GP 9s are a staple on this job.

Local at GR
Title:  Local at GR
Description:  How things have changed over the years....CP local D 22 rolls under the signals at CPF 587 in Afton. Or more like it for D&H fans, SU 2 rolls past the signals at GR cabin....now if only the power was a pair of RS 11s or RS 36s.
