Railbird Steve...we're talking Hornell for WNYP 416, correct?

Monday is a slow day, and from 4pm until after the dinner hour there is usually a fleet of westbounds. Bottom line, just about any time you can sit in Fairport and see some action. The Shore is only used when there is traffic backed up in Rochester and the dispatcher needs to run some trains around ...

Anyone know if NS 1068 will stay on H13 on the 28th, or if will move elsewhere, possibly on 309?

It's back where it came from now...he headed south as soon as it got into SK

They're pretty common now...one can sit for a day and be guaranteed a few of them.

It is true that more traffic runs towards the end of the weekdays, due to the locals, work trains, and produce trains. The bulk trains of ethanol, crude oil, corn, sludge/dirty dirt and garbage run anytime of the week, at any time of day, sometimes in greater frequency than others. As for pinpointin...

According to posts on the SNCRR Yahoo group, there is trackwork and maintenance occurring north of NC to prepare for the freight. I know there has been talk of SD9043MACs before...anyone know what the freight power will be when the time comes?

Let's not beat a dead horse...someone's looking for Ed the Worm, not advocating or discouraging chalk drawings, which as you...

So, are there any active efforts going on to get permission to use the tracks up to the mine, and to get going with the mine again, or is it just a thought still?

So, does anyone have any developments on possible freight moves on the line?

NS owns all of that, and I don't have the contacts to speak with them, and I honestly recommend against pursuing it, just because NS isn't exactly railfan friendly, and I think it may do more harm than good. What are your questions? Maybe I or the other folks here can help out...feel free to PM me i...

The night train you heard was most likely the local that goes south to Arcade to work the interchange...

The train with the leasers was K400. It sounds like PAR is paying off horsepower hours to CSX again, by loaning their locomotives for a certain period of time to CSX. They did this earlier this summer, and 371 was involved. General practice has been to keep them on the route between Selkirk and Chic...
