SOO power leads a monster!167-todays train had 99 freight and 56 stack platforms-into the sun as seen from the shoulder of NY 417 just east of Addison. This shot can only be done late in the day. Usually the sun is on the other side of the train. |

Getting started |
| Description: |
I dont recall now if I was on a day off, or this was just after work. I had regular hours, but they differed every day. This was taken on a Tuesday, so its likely it was my day off. We start close to home, on the tangent near MP 232 between Campville and Owego, with the red face of a SOO SD leading 167 west into the sun. |

Long jump |
| Description: |
After getting the 167 at Campville, I jumped down to Smithboro, about 13 miles, taking NY 17 to exit 62, since there was no way I was beating him through Owego. I didnt want to risk getting scooped at Tioga Center, so I ran down to the west end of Smithboro, where the tracks come up to the road. |

Wide view |
| Description: |
The next jump was an easy one. I just had to step on it. This is the view from NY 17C near the Tioga transfer station at MP 249 between Barton and Waverly. It was a good "grab and go" spot. The third unit is a classic, one of SOO's original SD 40's. |

East side |
| Description: |
If a train was going fast enough, or I got stuck behind some slowpoke-its amazing the number of people who drive like they just dont care if they ever get where theyre going-I usually could not beat a train to downtown Waverly with its model railroad like buildings. So I had to go with other options. In this case, I grabbed the shot from about where the Tier crossed over the Ithaca Secondary, the former LV main. A SOO unit heading into the sun with a big train(99 freight, and 56 stack platforms) looks good in the late afternoon |

419 over the Chemung |
| Description: |
Train 419 with a big set of power for its 96 cars rolls over the Chemung River and into downtown Elmira. Note, the trailing unit is one of the NS units CP bought and turned into a "B" unit by blanking the windows and removing the controls. |

Barn on the bridge |
| Description: |
A CP red barn leads train 165 over the high bridge and Wylie Creek with 94 cars. The D&H was noted in its later years for having a multitude of paint schemes, so much so that it was hard to find a train with a matched set of power. It was perhaps fitting that CP should take them over; they did not seem to match the sets either-this train has three units, three paint schemes. Or is it the D&H influence on CP that's showing?? |
