Interesting... thanks for the first-hand accounts TD. At least we have a chance at some rare power now, between the heritage units, special interest locos, and 68N using lots of run-through power. Yesterday saw 2 KCS "Belles" on 68N- one on point and one on the markers as a DPU. We may hav...

NS 1074, the Lackawanna, is currently in Binghamton leading 205. It is waiting for a new crew to come on at 4:00pm to take it west to Buffalo

A little late now but today’s 310 had SD80mac 7211 as the first of 2 rear DPUs. It had two units on the head end with a UP leading. The train was well over a mile long and very heavy, as all four units were working hard. It went through Tioga Center just before 7:30pm.

I believe this was the first delivery of cars for revenue to State Line. I have a friend who hauls truckloads of cars in and out of there and he said they had one or two empty auto racks that they had been training on for loading and unloading there but State Line couldn’t ship or receive until the ...

Last summer I saw a 23K westbound intermodal stopped in Waverly and set the trip odometer on my car and drove from the front to the back of it on a parallel road and it was 2.35 miles long. It had 22,000 hp pulling it. 21M may have been the longest train to come north into Binghamton but definitely ...

Heard it is nearing Letchworth right about now

After it came through as a DPU on 310 on Friday, I've been told that the Conrail unit is leading 309 back west on the Tier today and is called to depart East Binghamton yard at 10:20am

Per HU, at 1:47 pm 8025, the Monongahela, was leading 310 east in Darien Center

Well, the Erie managed to slip past everyone between Scranton and Owego until my father-in-law happened to catch it out of nowhere while he was at work (right next to the tracks). He gave me a heads up and I was in Sayre for work and about to head north to Ithaca so I waited and caught it in Waverly...

1068, the Erie, is leading tomorrow's 310

Any idea where the 60Q welded rail train ended up? They dropped a bunch of rail in the Waverly to Owego area last summer and were installing sections of it in Tioga Center about 2 weeks ago

Yup. That was on Sunday and it fueled in Binghamton late Sunday night then came across the Tier before daylight Monday morning. It was in Ohio by 9:30am on Monday

8098, Conrail, is DPU on today’s 310. May already be on the Tier. 1072 snuck through leading 23K overnight and is in Ohio headed to Chicago now. May make a return trip on 22K. Keep an eye out!

Info from HU... 310 in Girard, PA at 10:45 this morning. 1072 is the second unit, with NS 4158 leading. 132 cars, DPUs UP 8744 and NS 2751, followed by 77 cars

1072 Illinois Terminal is on today's 310. Location is currently unknown
