Switchers too
Title:  Switchers too
Description:  Even switchers got the new scheme. I am not aware of any other end cab units on the roster, but this one, an ex SP unit judging by the lights, looks good in the G&W family colors, seen at Brooks Av.

Something old, something new
Title:  Something old, something new
Description:  This short train was at Brooks Av in Rochester over New Years weekend. We have a leased B&O GP 9 in Chessie paint leading, something old. Trailing is a GP 40 in the new R&S paint scheme, based on parent Genesee & Wyomings colors. It is a scheme that will become familiar nationwide as G&W builds its short line empire.

New paint
Title:  New paint
Description:  The Rochester & Southern was still a new operation in 1987, having taken over the B&Os former Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh lines from CSX. The power was painted in a scheme that was modified from parent Genesee & Wyomings original paint diagram, and would become well known in the short line world as G&W acquired more lines. Here we see R&S 105 in its new dress at Brooks Av yard in Rochester.

Got the juice
Title:  Got the juice
Description:  OJT, the Tropicana orange juice train, rolls north at AF. Typically, even numbered units faced north; somehow 138 got turned and is running backward. The train will terminate at Tropicana's Kearny NJ distribution center, where trucks will take the juice throughout the northeast. The cars will return south as they are unloaded, and are not returned as a unit train.

RF&P 125 south
Title:  RF&P 125 south
Description:  A southbound rolls past Alexandria early in the morning. RF&P is notable for several things, among others that their odd numbered units faced south, even numbered units faced north.

Description:  There were still a few of these units riding around in the mid 80s, even as Chessie was about to disappear into the Bright Future of CSX. This one is trailing on a B&O train passing Conrails Anacostia tower in DC. .

Orange Blossom Special
Title:  Orange Blossom Special
Description:  Seaboard, RF&P and Chessie revived an old passenger train name to boost a pair of intermodal trains between Jersey and Florida. It was easy to spot, as it had RF&P power leading north of Richmond, due to the cab signalling unique to them. The power often ran through to Jersey, as on this days edition, seen at Anacostia in DC. Check out the Conrail IH maintenance truck at left.

Dark side
Title:  Dark side
Description:  I must have dozed off in the car. This was not uncommon, as I worked nights most of the time, and would head out on a railfan trip after working til midnight or so. By the middle of the next day, I was pretty tired, and the sitting that goes with railfanning would put me out-til a train showed!! Heres a southbound RF&P train passing Alexandria, caught on the run at the station.

Long hood first
Title:  Long hood first
Description:  This configuration was not the typical one for the RF&P, unlike its Virginia brethren N&W and Southern. Every once in a while a unit would get backwards. Today its the leader on this 52 car southbound, passing the Alexandria passenger station.

Description:  I jumped off the DC bound Cardinal to catch some of the Alexandria action. At the time, Potomac Yard was still a big gateway, and the RF&P was an important player. Heres a shot of a light pole with a southbound merchandise train

Pigs south
Title:  Pigs south
Description:  In the 80s, containerization had not taken over the intermodal world to the extent it has today. This 79 car train of TOFC flats was typical, seen passing the Alexandria station. To the right, a DC Metro train rolls out of the King St station, making this photo truly intermodal.

Northbound pigs
Title:  Northbound pigs
Description:  I believe this was train 100, rolling north into Potomac Yard with 28 trailer flats. RF&P was peculiar in that even units faced north, odd units faced south, as seen here.

Add on
Title:  Add on
Description:  RF&P had a cab signalling system that was not compatible with anything else, and off line power was not equipped with it, even major connection SCL. This is why you never see foreign power leading there. Train 171 is south at AF with an RF&P leader, added at Potomac Yard just to the north. Looks like the railroad was anticipating a quick turn on the power-RF&P got pretty good utilization, and it was not unusual to see the same power twice in a day-since they added a unit on the rear of the consist as well. The extra power will surely not be needed to roll the train's 96 cars over the RF&P's profile. Of note, three years from the CSX merger, the renumbering has taken hold in earnest. All three CSX units have been renumbered into the 6000's, with the 6531 already repainted.

High priority
Title:  High priority
Description:  MKT was trying to make a dent in the KC-Texas intermodal market using short, fast trains. This was their daily effort, which I caught as a grab shot along US 169. He was moving pretty fast, judging by the blur on the first unit. The leader is one of the ex Kennecott Copper GP 39's.

Flags and a visitor
Title:  Flags and a visitor
Description:  The flags were not a big deal. Even after CP stopped repainting its diesels in the "Dual Flags" scheme, they showed up in it for some time after. The visitor was the second unit. While not unheard of on CP, Guilford power was something of an anomaly. This set is northbound on 413 at Depot Rd

Blank nose
Title:  Blank nose
Description:  This CP unit shows a feature that only a few units had-a blank nose. They must have been out of the "CP" decals the day they painted this engine. Train 413 rolls north with 34 cars.

413 rolls through BX
Title:  413 rolls through BX
Description:  At one time, this location was BX tower, where the D&H crossed the DLW Syracuse & Utica lines. Its been modified quite a bit since then-the ex DLW is now a switching lead for the feed plant, and the DLW YO yard is long gone. Even the D&H Bevier St yard is a shadow of itself. Train 413 starts north to Montreal, passing the Agway plant here with 73 cars.

Unusual power
Title:  Unusual power
Description:  An 8859 empty coal train rolls across Martins Creek Viaduct behind a CP SD 40-2 and a pair of Guilford units as the late afternoon sun lights up the bridge. This was quite unusual, in that Guilford power rarely ran south of Binghamton, and coal trains almost always had NS power.
