Description:  This train departed about ten minutes early today! A little unusual don't ya think? So we had to hastily set-up in order to catch them here at 16:30 coming off the main on the west leg of the wye.

Description:  At 17:34 crossing the bridge over Watkins Glen. Todays chase was a lot of fun, but next time we'll go for fewer shots with better planning & set-up.

Description:  Roughly two hours after leaving Gang Mills the train passes through Himrod Junction at 18:22. The track that goes to the right descends from here, turns, and goes under the track that this train is on, and into the village of Watkins Glen. Last I knew, the Finger Lakes RR hauled salt out of Watkins Glen on this trackage.
