Westbound in the sun |
Description: |
Given the weather that spring, this was something of a miracle. OIBU rolls 115 cars west through Campville in the glow of the afternoon sun. |

Gloomy day, high water |
Description: |
Another day, another day of rain. The spring of 1991 was so bad we just went out and shot trains anyway, since wed never see anything if we waited for sunny days. The excessive precipitation is showing in the adjacent Susquehanna, the water getting close to the top of the banks, putting a lot of trees in the river. Today's 51 car OIBU will manage to stay out of the drink. |

The forsythia are in bloom as BUOI rolls toward Kinney Rd in Campville. In a few years, the green trees will grow high enough to make this scene impossible. |

Going under |
Description: |
Under NY 282. We see OIBU and its 116 cars about to roll under me at Smithboro in a shot that was harder to do than it looked. The NY 282 overpass here had no shoulder, and no sidewalk, so you took your life in your hands to get the shot. |

Two semaphores |
Description: |
This shot was hard to get, because you had to park at a local auction barn, whose owner was a bit cranky. The blades were not next to each other, which also worked against the shot, but I did it once-and of course got dinked. OIBU rolls west past the westbound blade, at stop, with the eastbound signal in the distance. |

This view gives a good look at the Erie yard, which still has its water tower, and adjacent US 15/NY 417, now I 99. As part of the upgrade project making the road an interstate, the bridge I'm standing on was removed. |

Between the signals |
Description: |
The same BUOI we saw at Arkport now passes CP Corning after working at Gang Mills. Hes shed some power, now with only his two lead units, the trailing two dropped at Gang Mills yard. Note the curved concrete on the bridge at far left. This is the 1951 alignment that moved the tracks out of the city. The Erie station built at that time was at this location, the platform between the two main tracks, as can be seen from the space that still exists there. The building was down below at street level, with a parking lot at the end of one of the local streets. It was torn down about the time of this photo. The DLW was adjacent to the present tracks, on the right. It was abandoned after the EL merger in 1960. This location was formerly known as West Glass, and was the end of the west leg of the wye that was formed by this connection to the Corning Secondary, which went north from this point to join the Chciago Line at Lyons. |

Unusual signal |
Description: |
The signal itself is not that big a deal for the Southern Tier-there were lots of semaphores up til NS took over. Whats unusual is that its showing approach, an aspect not often seen, largely due to its short duration. Here OIBU passes on a gloomy afternoon in May with a whopping 36 cars. |

Split signals |
Description: |
Not only is OIBU splitting them by going between them, but they are two different types. Where Im standing was where the Erie RR Waverly station once stood, til it was wiped out in a 1967 derailment. But for that, youd likely see a pair of semaphores here. |

By the barn |
Description: |
One of my favorite shots, but you could only do it effectively during the long days of late spring and summer, was from an embankment along NY 17C east of Waverly. Here was a barn and silo, lending a real rustic effect to a line that was already quite scenic |

Straight on |
Description: |
One of the harder shots to do in the afternoon was an eastbound along NY 17C just east of Owego, due to the sun angle. There was enough side light to make this shot of BUOI work, as it approaches MP 231. |

Jackson's Pumpkin Farm |
Description: |
Jacksons Pumpkin Farm was a popular destination in the fall, when the pumpkins came in and they set up a whole fantasy land at their main location out on NY 17C, across the tracks from this view. They kept a small tent here by the fields along the tracks for smaller parties in the summer. We see BUOI rolling past on a July afternoon. Not much going on for the passing train's 53 cars to interrupt. |
