CEFX trio on the Susie-Q |
| Description: |
I broke away from the action at CP293 to check out the Q620 coming off the St. Lawrence-sub. The Q620 went from the wye at CP291 to track 1, then over to track 2, then over to track 7! Usually they do a crew change on track 8, the north runner, but a track maintenance crew was on 8. That totally messed-up my plans for a photo...oh well. So on the way back to CP293 I checked out the Susie-Q trackage and found this lease trio! |

GS-2 |
| Description: |
Fellow contributor Max Smith and I predicted that we would have ample sunshine today, and so we made a plan for a Finger Lakes chase. We followed the train from Geneva to Camillus, and then from there we fanned the NYS&W. Here we see them rounding the bend next to the state prison in Auburn. |

MARTISCO |
| Description: |
Last year the Finger Lakes railway began leasing these "bluebirds" and now regularly use them on there GS-2 train..........aka the sweep train. Here we see them descending the grade at Martisco as they work their way toward Solvay yard. As you can see they're on welded rail here; at a point not far west from here the rail is jointed all the way to Geneva. Historically speaking this is the Auburn Road, and it's one of the oldest railroads in the USA. A long time ago there used to be a branch from here to Otisco; if you look hard enough you can trace the line still to this day. |
