Y111 |
| Description: |
Since I started working a Tuesday through Saturday schedule, Mondays have been freed up to catch movements that would be unlikely to happen on weekends. After checking the situation at Woodard I decided to move on to Syracuse in hopes of catching this train. Talk on the radio indicated that they were looking for track east of CP285 which means only one thing: they're going to 84 Lumber. They left the yard with a loaded lumber car, a box car, and three tanks. In this frame we see that they cut away from the three tanks and are headed straight for Bridge Street with the loads for 84 Lumber. |

Crossing Bridge Street........they will have to pull forward enough so that the boxcar is fully in the road, then throw the switch in order to shove into 84 Lumber. |

CSX train V080-07 |
| Description: |
While waiting for the Y111-07 to leave 84 Lumber we saw this westbound train. Apparently it's an empty grain train even though there was red zip-tie seals on the bottom of a lot of the hoppers; like, why would anyone care to seal an empty car? A good friend of mine informed me that this originated in Selkirk, and is bound for Crestline, OH. |

Complete Packaging Solutions |
| Description: |
If it was'nt for this one and only customer on this particular trackage in Syracuse, then you can bet it would join the long list pf places in the area that used to, but no longer receive rail service. The only thing unfortunate about this moment is that any shots with the power in the foreground would be extremely back-lit; I did stay and watch the whole manuever anyway. And it was pretty interesting to see too because only two of the three cars that were already there were hauled away. On top of that, they sandwiched the one that stayed between the two head-end and the rear car of the new inbound loads. Must be the customer wanted them arranged in a specific order. (BTW....GATX 22307 was delivered on 10/24/2016) |

The ball park |
| Description: |
CSX train Y111-07 is shoving back to the main after switching Complete Packaging Solutions. They would have to wait for an hour or so for the mainline to clear before shoving two miles west of here to pick-up 20+ cars on the pocket track at CP 293. The stadium seen here is home to the Syracuse Chiefs baseball team. |
