Rare bird
Title:  Rare bird
Description:  Conrail had only ten C30-7s, a model that was common elsewhere. They did go big for a modified version, the 12 cylinder C30-7A, of which they had 50. One of the straight C30s leads SEEN7 into Enola from Selkirk with 121 cars.

MP 337
Title:  MP 337
Description:  The milepost to the right of BUOI gives away the location as the train approaches Hornell and a pick up at Morrison Knudsen. To the left of the train, next to the pole line, you can see a semaphore in the approach position. There were a pair of semaphores there, across from each other. It was not an easy location to access, hence there are few photos of that set, unlike the Tioga Center blades, which you could shoot from the shoulder of NY 17C. The train is on track 1, the "fast" track, with a 40 MPH speed limit. Track 2, the "D&H main", so called becaise some Conrail dispatchers would put D&H trackage rights trains on it, had a section of 25 MPH and a section of 10 MPH speed restrictions, making for a very slow trip to River Jct.

Mismatch
Title:  Mismatch
Description:  D&H 7303 is pushing a pair of Conral SD 40s toward East Binghamton. Not sure what occasioned this unusual move, but my guess would be some kind of mechanical issue that required a shop, as it was more than could be handled by a service truck.

Going downtown
Title:  Going downtown
Description:  A westbound CR train has cut off its train at BD, and is taking the power, a pair of SD 40s and a GP 38, down to QD to work the Erie yard. This was my first visit to Binghamton, and I was not familiar with the symbols then; there were several trains that ran the line from Jersey to points test. A few years later, that would be trimmed to two, OIEL and OIBU. I would guess this would be OIBU, or something similar, as it showed in the afternoon, which was its usual time slot.

Rolling past Cass St
Title:  Rolling past Cass St
Description:  BUOI rolls into Hornell past Cass St tower, now a relay case for CP Cass, as it enters Hornell. The tower is partly seen at far right. To the far left, coming out from under the first car, the track leading to the left is the Erie main to Jamestown and Youngstown OH. It was cut the year before, when Conrail essentially abandoned it as a through route, with what little traffic remained served by Olean based locals, with cars forwarded over the ex PRR Buffalo Line. It would be another ten years til WNY&P resored the connectino after NS took over the line. For now, we have only the ghosts of ELOI and 2NY 100 to take the switch and climb toward Tip Top.
