Conrail 6399 (date is a guess)
Title:  Conrail 6399 (date is a guess)
Description:  I took this one in 1993, waiting in Utica, New York for Amtrak's (actually Swedish Railways') X2000 tilt train to visit. That may give a clue as to the date, but I don't have good source material handy right now. Does anybody know? It was hours late, and didn't arrive until after dark, so all of my best shots were taken during the day waiting for it, while I still had light. This locomotive, an EMD SD40-2 diesel, was leading a lashup of other locomotives pulling a garbage train. In those days, New York State had so much garbage that it was being shipped west by rail! I mainly like the impression of speed that this photo gives, with the blurred handrails and headlight, even if the train was only going about 50 m.p.h.!!!

Title:  Some of each
Description:  CR was still using electric power at that time, but occasionally it would get an assist from diesels. We see such a power set at Kearny as it prepares to head over to Harsimus Cove with a pair of then new SD40-2's.

OIBU on the river
Title:  OIBU on the river
Description:  OIBU runs along the Susquehanna at one of my favorite spots with a long cut of empty hoppers head out. Sometimes, rather than have the cars wait for the next Goudy coal train, Conrail would run them back to Buffalo on OIBU, then forward them from there in regular trains.

Early train
Title:  Early train
Description:  OIEL was usually an early morning job the days it ran, usually past Binghamton between 6 and 8 AM. I was up and out early, catching it rolling past the downtown buildings at Waverly. This train changed crews at Gang Mills, then took the Erie Main Line west at Hornell, serving Olean, Salamanca, and Jamestown. I really should have paid more attention to it on that segment; the problem was, you never knew if a new crew was getting on right away at Gang Mills. Sometimes the train would get there, and sit all day, killing the chase. I did get it a few times, just wish Id done it more.

CR SD40-2 #6401
Title:  CR SD40-2 #6401
Description:  It appears that Conrail SD40-2 #6401 is getting a new paint job. From the scorch marks on the side panels, it makes me think that were was some heat damage along the way. Eventually CR #6401 became CSX 8817. No info was included with this large photo so the date is approximate.
