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!

At Americold
Title:  At Americold
Description:  After checking the Belle Isle siding first thing this morning, I headed for home; but not before checking on the Baldwinsville local B769. I thought for sure that by this time (07:57) they would have been in Baldwinsville already, instead, they were spotting a CRYO-TRANS reefer at the Americold warehouse! In the background is the rest of the train under the New York State Thruway bridge.

Leaving Americold
Title:  Leaving Americold
Description:  At 07:57 CSX #6959 is leaving Americold after spotting a CRYO-TRANS reefer. After clearing the switch and normalizing it, they'll reverse back to a string of grain and cement hoppers that they left behind them on the south side of John Glenn Blvd. and head for Baldwinsville where they work at Budweiser. The bridge that the train is under in the background is the New York State Thruway.

B773
Title:  B773
Description:  The CSX Fulton local is clearing the wye at CP293 and heading north on the St. Lawrence-sub. Opportunities to see this train in daylight are rare because it usually runs at night between 20:00 and 06:00 hours; winter weather probably set this one back. The crew will probably set cars out at Woodard before ending up back in Fulton.
