Going thrjugh at Glass |
Description: |
East Glass, that is. TV 301 passes the home signal at CP E Glass, the east leg of the wye leading to the Corning Secondary, the ex NYC line that runs north along Seneca Lake to a connection with the Chicago Line at Lyons. The line will be downgraded in a few years-abandoned south of Wellsville-and this poinw will be renamed CP Gibson when the switch at N Glass is changed to a hand throw. Fall color abounds on this mid October day. TV 301 will follow the Erie west of Corning to Buffalo.( |

Broad expanse |
Description: |
This view of TV 301 shows a wide view of the Chemung River as it approaches Corning. The tracks are the former Erie, the empty space to the left was the Lackawanna right of way. To the right, is the still building NY 17 bypass around Corning. Drivers wishing to go through Corning at this time still have to go downtown, following what is now NY 352-Dennison Pkwy-through the middle of town. The roadway will be open in the next year or so, but the 4 lane will end here until the segment connecting to the rest of the Southern Tier Expressway is completed in 1995, vexing train chasers who still have to go though town and deal with a couple of lights to try and stay with the train. If you had some luck and the slowpokes stayed out of your way, you had a chance. Im standing on the NY 414 overpass. |

Treed in |
Description: |
I have a shot here of TV 301 in the winter, which is much wider open. The trees with leaves really close in the shot, though in this colorful time of year, ill take it. The train is about to pass under PA 191 as it makes its way toward NY state. |

Over the top |
Description: |
Actually west of the summit, TV 301 is still pulling as its head end starts downgrade into Pennsylvania, which it will cross into in about five more minutes. The road over the summit crosses the tracks here, and will stay on the south side til just before Starrucca Viaduct. |

Colorful scene |
Description: |
Mid October is the time to see the Southern Tier, as the leaves usually peak some time in the middle of the month. This was a typical year, as we see TV 301 rolling west from the overpass just off I 81 exit 1. |

Scenic LV |
Description: |
The LV stayed pretty much intact east of Sayre PA, though between there and Allentown there was not much traffic after Conrail started. West of there, much of the railroad was pulled up, except for a few sections here and there. Probably the most important was what became the Ithaca Branch under Conrail, the line from Sayre up through Van Etten Jct, then on to ithaca. It served a NYSEG generating station at Milliken, and an adjacent Cargill salt mine, as well as some local customers in Ithaca. Sometimes cars for the uplake customers would be combined, which is what we see here. WAIT 2 rolls north with a salt block head out, with about 90 coal hoppers behind. It will tie up traffic in Ithaca for 20 minutes when it rolls through town. |

Last of the Lehigh |
Description: |
The LV west of Van Etten Jct was abandoned almost wholesale shortly after CR start up-just too many routes to Buffalo-and really, the line west of Allentown was largely a ghost line, with just a few locals at Coxton, and one train each way daily covering what remained of the line as far as Sayre. One segment west of Sayre that stayed active was the line to Ithaca, which hosted several coal trains each week to the NYSEG generating station at Ludlowville, and to a Cargill salt mine. The salt was occasionally combined with the coal, but often not, and ran as WAIT2 west of Sayre. Here we see the WAIT2 near Van Etten, en route to the Cargill mine. |

Coming at us |
Description: |
The focus for this day of railfanning was TV 203, which I and a couple of friends had picked up in Owego. We chased to Attica(about 165 miles), a little longer than usual-we typically turned back at Silver Springs, since chasing west of there was problematic due to back roads, a few inconveniently placed crossings, and a long 30 MPH speed limit and a No Turn On Red in Warsaw. We encountered several other trains along the way, among them this ELOI rolling 60 cars east past the semaphore on track 1 in Rathbone. |
