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.

Q153
Title:  Q153
Description:  Well, I was on my way to a gig in Clay, NY this morning; I left early of course just in case I saw any action, and I heard this train call the signal at Wetzel Rd. I had just enough time to set-up for this shot. I guess this is a new train operating on the St. Lawrence-sub, what I'm confused about is this: I thought southbound trains were even-numbered. What's up with this?

So, here it is tied-down on the Belle Isle siding at CP296 where CSX's Syracuse terminal and Rochester subdivisions border-up. CSX engine #309 is leading the Q381 on track 1, and the Q112-17 is stopped on track 2 at CP294 waiting for authorization to run through a work zone.

K532-19
Title:  K532-19
Description:  This caught me by surprise and left me with very little time to set-up. I'm guessing this one engine is pulling a string of empty hoppers from ALCOA in Massena, NY. The reciprocal of this train is the K533 which brings bauxite loads to ALCOA. Here the train is at the south end of the St. Lawrence-sub on the east shore of Onondaga Lake.

CSX train V080-07
Title:  CSX train V080-07
Description:  While waiting for the Y111-07 to leave 84 Lumber we saw this westbound train. Apparently it's an empty grain train even though there was red zip-tie seals on the bottom of a lot of the hoppers; like, why would anyone care to seal an empty car? A good friend of mine informed me that this originated in Selkirk, and is bound for Crestline, OH.

Q351
Title:  Q351
Description:  You'd think this was a 3 mile train with all this power on it. It was long, but not 3 miles; and, according to what I heard only two of the engines were on-line. As I often do, I was checking the Belle Isle siding first thing this morning, I was on my way home when I caught this train leaving the west end of that very siding at CP296! I got ahead of them in order to catch them here at 08:00.

Title:  EB mixed w/NYS&W #3810
Description:  Railfanning after work today was like the old days for me; no plan, no scanner, and a cheap camera! I got out of work and headed for the Belle Isle siding to see if anything was there, as I was gettin' close I could see the tail end of a string of tankers headin' east around the end of Onondaga Lake near the Carousel Mall. I changed course and headed straight for CP286 to wait it out.........Nothing. Started heading back westward for home and then saw this!

CEFX 1033
Title:  CEFX 1033
Description:  The family and I were on a weekend get-away, and while they were lapping it up at the indoor pool in the hotel, I was out looking for train action and I was'nt having any luck. Just before we headed for home I said: "Let me take just one last walk to the tracks". As soon as I got out of the pick-up I could hear it rumbling up the line, and I was hoppin' happy to see it!
