"A Late Winter Run" MA&N Steuben (video)

[ut-1]

On March 6th, Mohawk, Adirondack & Northern Alcos Nos. 2453 and 2456 (both ex-Erie-Lackawanna, Conrail & BC Rail) were tasked to take a 46-car train north out of Utica on the road's 45-mile Utica-Lyons Falls line. The tank cars will be stored on the otherwise unused 10-mile stretch of track between Boonville-Lyons Falls.

Here's a two-minute video showing the train in Steuben (Bethel Road):
