Viewing Album:  Street-Running on the NYSW Utica Branch
 
By:Nicholas Dixon
Dates:2/6/2024 - 2/6/2024
Album Info:With unusually warm and sunny weather, I played hooky at work and went to Utica. The NYSW had been borrowing one of Mohawk, Adirondack & Northern's Alco C425s, which I was hoping to catch, but that had been returned and NYSW GP40 #3040 was back on the job. Still, I managed to catch them switching F.X. Matt Brewery, which I've never done in all the times I've photographed this line
