The final 1/3 of 23K was a mix of COFC and TOFC.

Got questions? I can help you with the Erie Lackawanna (including predecessors), Lehigh Valley, Delaware & Hudson and the shortlines of upstate NY.

A little over an hour after 23K departed, 13T rumbled into town.

13T often stops at Gang Mills, so the covered hoppers in the consist may have been dropped off there.

As 13T headed eastward, I chose to end the chase for the day.

Nice shots

Thanx! I wish I could've caught the OCS at the majestic Portageville Viaduct... but it was impossible to get there in time from CP Cass. Oh well, it was a fun chase day anyway.

Some of those locations look like they would have great fall colors and make for some really good shots.

Oh yeah, I'm itching to get shots from the pedestrian bridge at CP Gibson in Corning in October.
