Knocking it down |
Description: |
BUOI has gotten far enough past the signals that the semaphore is dropping-see it behind the cab of the trailing unit. These signals were always fun to watch. |

Elkhart bound |
Description: |
OIEL behind a pair of 4 motors, rolls past the eastbound signal at Hiawatha Rd. OIEL was usually an early morning train here, often getting through Owego by 0800. Counterpart ELOI was combined with BUOI at Gang Mills most of the time, and ran here infrequently. |

West in the sun |
Description: |
OIBU rolls 93 cars west near MP 250, having just passed the Tioga County transfer station, and a couple of semaphores, one of which can be seen to the right of the train. This was the spot where the LV Auburn Branch ducked under the EL to reach Sayre. |

Along North St |
Description: |

Most of the time, Id catch trains here in the late afternoon, since Id be chasing after work. This is a great afternoon shot, as the train is rolling right into the sun. Middle of the day photos are not nose lit, but are nicely side lit. We see TV 203 in the side light as it comes around the big curve and under the NY 427 overpass. |

Flowers and a prop |
Description: |
Many of the roadways were either planted with widlflowers, or they just grew there, which is pretty likely, and I tried to get them in a photo when possible. Waverly must have been built by a model railroader, as there are many building there that you would think were pulled off someones layout. Ted Clarks, behind the train, is one such, and always made a good photo prop from the access road to NY 17 from US 220. |

Six axles today |
Description: |
CR ran whatever was handy on OIBU, though it tended to get six axle power most of the time. There had been a spate of 4 motors on the train at this time, so this pair of big GEs was something of a return to normal. |

Going solo |
Description: |
Trains on the Tier almost never went with one unit. There were too many grades to overcome between Buffalo and Jersey, despite a lot of river running to ease the trip. Todays BUOI has only 37 cars, so perhaps the trip wont be as much of a struggle as usual. They made it over Attica Hill, lets see how they do over Gulf Summit dnd Otisville. Perhaps that EL box car up front will bring them luck. |

ELOI and new power |
Description: |
ELOI runs alongside NY 17C with a pair of new C40s and 33 cars. This train was notable in that ELOI only sporadically got east of Gang Mills-it usually terminated there, its cars forwarded by BUOI; and that it had new power. The train usually got a motley assortment of whatever was available at Elkhart, though sometimes that was western units off UP connections. |

Dodging the shadows |
Description: |
The great thing about Tioga Center was the semaphores; the down side was the hill to the west of the tracks, which made them go into shadow early. I had to dodge the shadows to get the power lit, meaning I had to pass up the "through the goalposts" signal shot. Still the blade on track 2 has not started to drop yet, and it can be seen above the lead stack. |

This is different |
Description: |
CNW power was not common on the Tier. On the Chicago Line, youd see it fairly often on PXSE or NPSE, both connections off Union Pacific that used the Northwestern to bridge the gap from Fremont Neb to Chicago, with the power running through. These guys got lost somehow, and wound up on OIBU, stopped here at Owego to check for a hot journal on one of its 119 cars, the train having tripped the detector at MP 230.45 near Campville. Too bad it wasnt an hour earlier-the light would have been ideal!! |

Coal at the semaphores |

An eastbound loaded UNE coal train for the Goudy plant in Johnson City rolls through the twin semaphores at Tioga Center behind a single C40-8. Its an easy pull for the GE with only 42 cars. Note the light is lit green on the westbound signal. The meet will happen somewhere between here and MP 240, probably just east of town where the tracks are inaccessible. |

Late winter in the Tier. |
Description: |
The snow has all melted, and the grays and browns have taken over. Buds wont start appearing for another several weeks. Against this drab backdrop, OIBU rolls west on the Southern Tier at MP 231 along the Susquehanna River with 29 cars |

Gloomy OIBU |
Description: |
The spring of 1991 had a lot of rainy days. We were used to this in the Tier, so we went out to chase anyway, since all the usual rail susoects would be out, in this case, OIBU with 90 cars behind a pair of GEs. |

Gloomy day, high water |
Description: |
Another day, another day of rain. The spring of 1991 was so bad we just went out and shot trains anyway, since wed never see anything if we waited for sunny days. The excessive precipitation is showing in the adjacent Susquehanna, the water getting close to the top of the banks, putting a lot of trees in the river. Today's 51 car OIBU will manage to stay out of the drink. |

Spring is here |
Description: |
The forsythia are in bloom as BUOI rolls toward Kinney Rd in Campville. In a few years, the green trees will grow high enough to make this scene impossible. |

Going under |
Description: |
Under NY 282. We see OIBU and its 116 cars about to roll under me at Smithboro in a shot that was harder to do than it looked. The NY 282 overpass here had no shoulder, and no sidewalk, so you took your life in your hands to get the shot. |
