New look for BUME |
| Description: |
CP power started to show up on D&H trains on July 26, when an acid train ran from Montreal to Baltimore. Before long, it was showing up on the Tier as well, as we see with this BUME going east along NY 17C. |

Erie relic |
| Description: |
MEBU and 46 cars pass the water tank base at Addison. Eries last steam was in 1953, but in 1990, the concrete base is still standing, a testimony to its builders. In 2015, when I was last by there, it was still standing. |

A pair of CP SD40-2s roll MEBU west under the NY 427 overpass at Chemung, the late afternoon sun lighting up the red diesels. Just like the Erie and EL who ran this line for many years, there's a high and wide right behind the power. |

Wide ride |
| Description: |
MEBU rolls east of Waverly, where EL had a center siding. Conrail removed it early on in their ownership of the Tier, but never realigned the tracks. There was an identical situation at Canaseraga, west of Hornell, where there was also once a center siding. |

Lots of changes |
| Description: |
Actually, one big one. The area along the fence line to the left of oncoming MEBU was approximately where the DLW main line ran prior to 1959. Consolidation of facilities with the Erie that year eliminated it. The line would regain its right of way a few miles to the west at Gibson, near NY 414. Now its a cow pasture. The Southern Tier Line itself will change yet again in a few years. Conrail will single track this segment, eliminating the small bridge here in favor of a set of corrugated metal culverts. How things change... |

Today I beat him |
| Description: |
I didnt do the shot here at Wellsburg often, mostly because I could not race down NY 427 from Chemung fast enough, or, alternately, on NY 17 to the Lowman crossover, which was a mile from the tracks, to beat a train here after shooting it at Chemung. The dimensional load behind the power has restricted the trains speed, so today I get lucky, and we have MEBU rolling into the afternoon sun. |

Snowy coal |
| Description: |
A shot I wanted to do, but never seemed to be in the right place for, was this shot from NY 17C in Campville. It didnt turn out as well as I had hoped, as the lighting was a problem most of the day, and there was more clutter than at first glance. Either way, heres a 98 car UB series coal train behind the usual set of SD40 types. |
