Honestly, tell us how you really feel |
| Description: |
With diesels going all over nowadays, its hard to know where the author of this assessment entered his opinion on the side of this unit. My guess is someone at UP was not feeling a lot of self esteem about his company. |

12T in the snow |
| Description: |
12T was usually an early morning event in the Binghamton area, often getting through town by 0600. Sometimes it ran late, which made for a good chase. Todays train has a new "white face" scheme C40-9 leading approaching Endwell along NY 17C. |

12T rolls through Endwell as seen from Watson Blvd across the pond. NS was taking delivery of new GEs from Erie in primer at the time, and painting them at Altoona or Chattanooga as they reached those shops. The result was many of them ran "undecorated" for a while til they got to a paint booth. One trails on this train. |

Scenic 12T |
| Description: |

Big power for a local |
| Description: |
NS was not shy about putting top of the line power on locals and switch jobs. Where CR was using GP 38s and B23s on their locals, and later GP 40s, NS almost always had C40-8s assigned. It was fun watching a six axle GE working the Agway mill on somewhat shaky rail, or down the Vestal Spur, though they did ultimately do some serious track rehab on it around 2003. Here we have a pair of six axles on H 88, a turn job from Gang Mills to Binghamton, with mostly NYSW interchange. The leader is one of the thousand C40's on NS, but the trailing unit is an almost new SD70M-2, a unit youd more typically expect on 206. |

H 88 |
| Description: |
H 88 was the turn job that ran Gang Mills to Binghamton. Though like most NS trains, it usually got a pair of GE widecabs, anything could and did show up. Here it is at Hiawatha Rd in Owego behind a pair of widecabs, this day they belong to BNSF. This set ran on H 88 for several weeks. |

Warbonnet on the river |
| Description: |
13T arrives at Binghamton behind the unlikely combination of a BNSF warbonnet GE, and a CSX standard cab GE, with 34 cars in tow for Allentown. Binghamton was one of those places where anything could show up, and usually did. The NS era is proving to be no different in that regard than any previous era. |

13T with western power. |
| Description: |
As I have noted elsewhere in this album, 13T could sometimes show up with some surprises. Here its going through Endicott behind a pair of GEs. Not a big deal, except on is a BNSF unit still in red and silver, the other is a standard cab CSX unit. The train will meet H 88 at Binghamton in about 20 minutes. H 88 has a pair of BNSF AC4400s. The Tier was never boring!! |

H 2 on H 88 |
| Description: |
NS would keep power sets on some trains for a long time. In this case, it was a pair of BNSF units that ran on H 88 for over a month. They were painted in the then current "Heritage II" scheme, as this predated the "swoosh" by several years. This day I chased them out to Chemung, catching them and all of nine cars from my usual perch on NY 427 as they round the curve past the now privately owned Erie station, which can be seen in the crook of the curve. |

| Description: |
Train 675 was one of a pair of trains that ran salt from a mine north of Ithaca on the ex LV to the Vermont Railway at Whitehall on the D&H. The NS power ran through. This is the empty move, 675, passing Hiawatha Rd in Owego. It will go to Waverly, back down the connection to the ex LV at Sayre, then head north to the mine. |

Big power from two roads |
| Description: |
Top of the line power leads H 88 toward Binghamton. The BNSF unit was not the typical power on this train, though there were several units that stayed on this job for several months that year. |

By the detector |
| Description: |
H 88 with a BNSF leader passes the detector at MP 223.2 on track 2. In the background at right is one of the many Endicott Johnson buildings that were once part of an extensive shoe making operation, that is now only a memory. |

H 88 splits the signals |
| Description: |
H 88 behind a BNSF/NS duo passes between the signals at MP 224 in Endicott. The signal on track 2 had been recently replaced, taking the place of the last semaphore on the Tier, signal 224-2, which was about 1/4 mile to the west. |

Peeking through the weeds |
| Description: |
13T approaches Endicott, seen through the overgrowth near the NY 17C overpass. Todays leader is a BNSF GE, with four NS units, to make sure they make Allentown with their 31 cars. This train was usually a good bet for something unusual. |

Sunlit |
| Description: |
205 rolls around the sweeping curve and into the afternoon sun at MP 231 with train 205s 34 stack platforms. The JB Hunt box behind he power in this photo is in a way prophetic. Within a year, I'd be working for them in dispatch in Lowell Ark, giving up the wilds of upstate NY for one of the more up and coming parts of the country. I've been out of NY ten years, and I'm not looking back. |

No speed runs here |
| Description: |
H 01 is seen in the distance, ambling along with some cars for National Pipe and Plastic across the river in Vestal. This was once a mighty main line, the likes of Phoebe Snow sprinting along at a cool 70. Her ghost will be haunting the house at a leisurely ten today, allowing her memory to linger as the afternoon gloom fades to night. |
