Leased power
Title:  Leased power
Description:  I've had a really dry spell recently in my efforts to catch anything other than CSX units leading trains on the "water level route". So when I heard these guys calling signals and talking with dispatch, I hit the road! I could have set up for a better shot if it was'nt for the 15 seconds we were held at a nearby red light. By the way, the CITX 2792 is leading the K408 here.

Let it roll!
Title:  Let it roll!
Description:  Even though I thought I was lucky to catch this local here this evening, I did'nt think that the sun was working with me. I snapped off about 20 photos in 10 minutes here. The best part was when they cut a car loose from the string coupled to the power, and let it roll downgrade (northbound) and slam into the string of cars set-out on the mainline! Anyway, I posted two other photos in different albums if you're interested in some other angles. And, one more thing...the train is occupying the St. Lawrence sub...and the track to the left goes north up through Phoenix and onto the east side of Fulton and Oswego, and all the way to the Lake Ontario shoreline at the Port of Oswego!

K678
Title:  K678
Description:  We've had a gentle rain all afternoon, the skies are gray, it's about 6:30 in the evening, definitely not ideal circumstances for outdoor photography; but when a consist like this shows up around here, I'll settle for it! Here we see the K678 taking the Belle Isle siding in reverse at CP293. They could'nt bring it in head-end first because a short string of tankers are occupying the west end of the siding at CP296.

CREX #9030
Title:  CREX #9030
Description:  This engine is the second of two powering CSX's Q641 this morning. I was'nt expecting to see this lease unit, and obviously I was'nt prepared for it. But I was happy to catch it anyway, and thanks to this web-site, I was able to determine with confidence that the reporting abbreviation is CREX!

HLCX meets ICE
Title:  HLCX meets ICE
Description:  Dim lighting made for a lousy, blurry photo of this eastbound autorack meeting a westbound tanker train late this afternoon in Warners, NY. No doubt; I was happy to catch this meet with leased and foreign power, but all 7 photos came out blurry.....so much so that I can not positively identify the third locomotive in the autorack train! It looks like #6655, but there are very few photos of 6655 on this site to make a comparison.

CN power
Title:  CN power
Description:  A couple of CN engines power a westbound tanker train on CSX's New York-Chicago double track main. They're on track 1 as they pass through Jordan, NY this afternoon. The top of that utility pole in the background behind the lead unit turned what could have been a good photo into a lousy one! Oh well, I was happy to catch them anyway.

Q626-17
Title:  Q626-17
Description:  Since I was working against the sun, I had to settle on a going away shot here. If it was'nt for the CN and CITX units, I would'nt have bothered. Unfortunately the train will have to stop at CP300 in Warners because the defect detector sensed a hot-box on the north side of axle 54! The consist is led by CSX #260.

EB autorack
Title:  EB autorack
Description:  I swear I heard dispatch call this train the S268-19. I chased after this one (for obvious reasons) from CP296. I thought I was gonna miss them, but ended up waiting here for almost an hour before they showed up at 16:10. By that time the sun had shifted and left me with a lousy shot of a great train!

EB ethanol
Title:  EB ethanol
Description:  With a "heads-up" from my buddy Jack Jakeman, and only a 1/2 hour to spare, I headed for Memphis to try and catch the K653 with CN power on it. That did'nt happen; but I did catch this at around 17:35.....I think they called it the K634......back-lit of course.........dang it! About an hour and a half later I did see the K653 though; from the Syracuse Chiefs baseball stadium!!!

BNSF on CSX rails
Title:  BNSF on CSX rails
Description:  At CP296, this eastbound train is just entering CSX's Syracuse terminal-sub from the Rochester-sub. I snapped the photo off at 4:40 in the afternoon, so I'm guessing this is CSX train Q626............a daily Buffalo to Selkirk mixed freight. It's somewhat common to see switchers in this particular train, just like there is today!

Q626
Title:  Q626
Description:  I've seen a lot of new and odd things out here lately.........."new" trains and new symbols........westbounds with even-numbered symbols, etc. I swear I heard these guys call this the Q626 when they called the signals. The Q626 is almost always mixed-freight, today it's running earlier than usual (12:41) and is nothing but auto-racks!
