Coming in from Detroit
Title:  Coming in from Detroit
Description:  DNBU rolls toward Buffalo with 107 cars from North Yard. In an earlier era, this train might have come across Canada on NYC subsidiary Canada Southern. Conrail sold that line several years prior to this photo, and it is no longer a through route, requiring a stateside journey for Detroit-Buffalo traffic.

Jeff Junction
Title:  Jeff Junction
Description:  TV 303 has just crossed Starrucca Viaduct and is now at CP Lanesboro, the location of Jefferson Jct, where the Erie had a line connecting to the D&H Penn Division.

The right of way is now hidden under the snowpack to the right of the tall pole to the right of the train, never to see a passing train again.

TV 79
Title:  TV 79
Description:  One of the hotter van trains to run the Water Level Route was TV 79, which was a direct connection to the Santa Fe at Chicago, along with TVLA. The two often ran close to each other, one almost on the others blocks. Here, TV 79 passes the old NYC 1957 station at Dewitt with 74 TOFC and 28 stacks. Even at this late date, it was not uncommon to find sets of 4 motor power on van trains.

TVs past the station
Title:  TVs past the station
Description:  A 58 car eastbound TV train rolls past the 1957 NYC station built at Dewitt to replace the Art Deco station downtown on Erie Blvd when the passenger line was abandoned to build I 690. That building served as a bus terminal until the transportation center out at Carousel Mall opened in the late 90s, an event which also closed this station.
