The "Syracuse" |

The James E Strates train was a regular feature on the Tier, as it played a number of county fairs and other events through the summer in the northeast. Its cars were named for towns it played in, or had some significance to the operation. On this trip through Binghamton, it had the Syracuse in consist. |

Not Phoebe |

This NS has not turned 12T into a reincarniation of the Phoebe Snow!! This and another Metro North car were en route to Hornell for rebuild when I caught them on the Chenango River bridge going west. |

Horizon car |
| Description: |
Amtraks Horizon cars were patterned after the cars the EL acquired in the early 70s, as can be seen by their similarity to the EL cars appearance, such as this one in Kansas City. |

New cars |
| Description: |
Every so often, Amtrak updates its equipment. Since I dont live near any Amtrak lines-Im about equal distance from Little Rock and Kansas City-I dont get to see the "new" stuff often. That, and my 64 year old mind still thinks of Amfleet, and even Heritage cars. So seeing the cars now running on Amtrak midwest is a treat. This car was on train 305 at Springfield. |

Side view |
| Description: |
A broadside view of one of the cars on train 305. The sun angle was dead on, so neither side was sunlit. You get the idea of the paint scheme, though. |
