Utica Notes: Daily activity M-F continues on the Utica-area industrials with the biggest customer, by far, being Oneida Warehouse along Campion Road, New Hartford. It is not unusual for crews to make two trips there per day. Runs to Sangerfield continue to occur just 1-2 times per week. This video f...

Utica Notes: For a short time, the Utica job had the symbol CL-X instead of UT-1. This was due to the fact that the Susquehanna was using Cortland-based extra board crew for Utica trains. However, at least two trainmen are based out of Utica once again so use of the UT-1 designation has resumed. At ...

Utica Notes: Trips to Sangerfield have decreased since my last update, sometimes only once per week. My guess is that this was probably due to the big track project. So far this week, they've made the trip just once, on Monday. The power was NYSW 3040 and a CSX leaser, 2514. Activity on the industri...
