Twin signals |
Description: |
Possibly the most well known location on the Tier was Tioga Center, up til 1992 the location of a pair of semaphores that were across the tracks from each other. Conrail replaced them as seen here. Somehow, tri lights didnt quite have the same charm. OIBU has 73 cars today and a mix of power. |

Along the rocks |
Description: |
One of the more interesting, but hard to get, shots was this on along the rock ledge west of Waverly. TV 202 is making its way east under O'Brien's Inn, a landmark along the cliff for many years. The hard part about this shot was that you had to park on the shoulder of NY 17 east, an expressway, and climb up a steep embankment, risking getting run off(or tickeyed) by the state troopers. The location is just as you approach the exit 60 off ramp. |

ML 440 with lease units |
Description: |
Conrail had a fleet of lease units under a subsidiary called Locomotive Leasing Services that primarily was shared with CN on a seasonal basis. By 1995 these units were coming home, and found their way onto many CR trains. Here one of them teams with a pair of SD40-2s to roll 20 COFC and 52 auto racks east on my 36th birthday. |
