Poking out of the shadow
Title:  Poking out of the shadow
Description:  OIBU rolls along the Susquehanna at Red Rocks, just east of Great Bend as the last sun reaches into the valley. Today's train is unusual, as the consist is 14 freight, 12 COFC and 125 stack platforms, more like an NYSW train than OIBU.

Tying up town
Title:  Tying up town
Description:  The primary reason for the existence of Conrails Ithaca Branch was the NYSEG plant at Milliken, and Cargill Salt, both of which were north of town along Cayuga Lake. When they went to either of these customers, they had some streetside running to get through town. The coal trains would run about 90 cars, and often there would be a pick up at Cargill that added another 30 cars or so. It really tied things up when a train came. An overpass has been built since this photo, really improving the access when a train is in town.

Streetside
Title:  Streetside
Description:  The Ithaca Branch runs along a city street to get through town from the yard to the line up to Ludlowville, where the Cargill salt mine and NYSEG plant are located. It makes for some interesting traffic. Not too bad here, though this guy wanted to get across pretty badly-a close call, even at 10 MPH-but the main streets get really tied up. WAIT 2 rolls south in the late afternoon, and a traffic mess is a sure thing.

Stacks in the fog
Title:  Stacks in the fog
Description:  An early October morning finds TV 301 heading west at Hiawatha Rd in Owego, passing signal 233-1, which wouod be removed when the new radio alarm detector was installed at Tioga Center a few years later. If you look closely, you can see the extra light below the main head. This light diplays "hot box" if the detector at Campville, MP 230, gets a hit on a hot axle, and would set the signal red. I only saw it happen once.
