MEBU in the corn
Title:  MEBU in the corn
Description:  This field in Owego was a favorite vantage point. There was a good, open view of the tracks, and the crops changed periodically, so it was always a new view from season to season, and year to year. Heres MEBU with a pair of GEs bracketing one of NRLs F 45s. How about that Rio Grande auto rack head out??

Fields of gold
Title:  Fields of gold
Description:  The time between when the corn went brown til the first snow could have some wonderful light, especially late in the day, when it made all the corn and grasses take on this golden hue. MEBU rolls west between Chemung and Wellsburg past one of those cornfields. Scenes like this made it a joy to chase in the Southern Tier, despite the lack of density compared to the Chicago Line or the ex PRR.

Title:  Wish I had that house
Description:  PLMT, a Mt Tom coal train, rolls north as the pushers work hard to keep it moving uphill. The folks in the house up there on the hill are getting a great show as the train snakes past Nowlan Rd and through town.
