Passenger work too
Title:  Passenger work too
Description:  The new B 40s were used on just about everything. Here 4032 is switching some passenger cars, positioning this obs on the rear for a trip to Jersey. Buildings are notable too. The tower to the right is the Lackawanna station, still in use, through for non rail purposes. The brick building to the left is the Erie freight house, unused except for an office in the head house where the local crew on WABH 11 is based. It will be demolished in the mid 90's, and a small more modern building erected, a brick structure in character with the building in this photo.

A change of scenery
Title:  A change of scenery
Description:  Not the NYSW GEs, though ten years earlier, no one in his right mind would have said the perennially broke Suskie would have modern high horsepower diesels, but the building to the right. The back of the store there is part of a strip mall with a Family Dollar and a P&C Foods(itself now a memory). The building sits on what was once the Allegany Division yard that was across the main from the Hornell station.

Looks like KL 1
Title:  Looks like KL 1
Description:  Six NYSW units lead what looks like a KL 1, but was called MEBU on the radio. There were probably not enough cars to run the trains separately-the car count was 73 on this train-so they were combined, saving a crew start. We see the train near the Tioga County transfer station, about where the LV Auburn Branch ducked under the EL. Two of the original four B40's are on this train.

Title:  The reason why
Description:  There is a Conrail XCL empty coal train waiting behind me at CP Horn for this 120 platform DHT 6(NYK 6) to cross over from 1 to 2 so it can go west past the Hornell station, then west on the Erie main to Olean. NYK 6 has run the "fast track" from CP River, for which I'm sure the crew was grateful. Track 2, the slow track, was all 25 and 10 MPH from CP River, 30 miles away at MP 359.
