CR SD60 #6840 East Hornell NY36 viewsOne a hub of activity in its Erie Lackawanna heyday, Hornell Yard in the Conrail era saw use mostly as a car storage facility. The former EL shop complex at this date was being used by Morrison-Knudsen to refurbish commuter rail cars. Eastbound BUOI, behind CR SD60 #6840, an SD40-2, and a GE CW40-8 are seen leaving East Hornell NY. The scenic Canisteo River Valley lies ahead.

B&M 315 at West Susquehanna PA35 viewsAn eastbound D&H train led by Boston & Maine #315 passes under the Erie coal tower at West Susquehanna PA, a relic of a much earlier era. The train will proceed east to a connecting track at Lanesboro PA where it will return to home rails via a complicate switchback maneuver at Jefferson Junction, necessitated by the construction work being done at the Belden Hill tunnel site to accommodate double-stack container traffic. This would be the last hurrah for the old D&H line across Ararat Summit.
