Here's where the action is
Title:  Here's where the action is
Description:  A westbound mixed freight goes through on track 1 of the main; ahead of it on track 2 is a gondola with an "End of Train" device affixed; that's the end of the Y111-1. After the westbound freight clears on out of here, the Y111-1 will back-up on to the Geddes St. lead and deliver some cars to the NYS&W. Tied down on the track to the left is a slug-set (CSX 2359&6959); and on the siding tracks between the mainline and the NY state fairgrounds are a grain train led by CSX 7911, and a coal drag led by CSX 806!

Description:  The B774 is northbound here between Fulton and Oswego approaching Dutch Ridge Rd. The clear and bright sunshine is without a doubt welcome, but is harsh at this angle when looking south this time of year.
