Climbing
Title:  Climbing
Description:  NY 10 approaches Schoolhouse Rd in Cascade Valley with 85 stack platforms behind a trio of B 40s. This was quite a climb for 4 axle power with a heavy train, but in that era it was a common sight, as CR and NYSW both used 4 motor units on stack trains.

Which way EJ??
Title:  Which way EJ??
Description:  Right here. Endicott Johnson Shoe Co was the reason those two towns existed. By the 1990s, they were but a memory in the area, with only one plant still open, making Frye boots in Endicott. This building at right was a warehouse, though from the equipment in the scene, there must have been some manufacturing. BUME passes, and will not stop here for any cars.

Yellowjacket trio
Title:  Yellowjacket trio
Description:  CP and NYSW ran their power through on the stack trains, which ran almost daily. With the relatively high number of these trains and the number of diesels needed to keep them moving, it was more common to see mixed consists than matched. It was therefore something of a surprise to see 255-the SLN 5-with a matched set not only of NYSW power, but three of the four remaining B 40s. Here they are about to roll over the road crossing at Canisteo. Any other day I'd have chased this train; I caught it while following 270 east, which had an M636 in the consist. I saw relatively few 6 motor Alcos on the Tier, so was not going to give that up.
