167, or is it F1G??
Title:  167, or is it F1G??
Description:  After NS took over running what had been trains 166 and 167, there were some symbol changes, though it took a while for them to become permanent. In the meanwhile, they sometimes took on NS alphabet soup symbols. They called this on F1G, seen here coming around the curve past the old Erie station.

Great curve
Title:  Great curve
Description:  Five miles west of Waverly is this shot at Chemung. It is also an easy catch, since it is on the NY 427 overpass immediately off the NY 17 off ramp. The bonus here is that you have the option of getting back on the highway and bolting for Elmira, or you can flip around and take NY 427 west for a couple of possible shots en route to Wellsburg, though youll miss any shot at Elmira by doing so.

H 2 on H 88
Title:  H 2 on H 88
Description:  NS would keep power sets on some trains for a long time. In this case, it was a pair of BNSF units that ran on H 88 for over a month. They were painted in the then current "Heritage II" scheme, as this predated the "swoosh" by several years. This day I chased them out to Chemung, catching them and all of nine cars from my usual perch on NY 427 as they round the curve past the now privately owned Erie station, which can be seen in the crook of the curve.

12T with a mix
Title:  12T with a mix
Description:  Of the NS trains that run the Tier, 12T seems to have the greatest power variety. I have seen BNSF, UP Wisconsin Central, MRL, IC , SOO and various lease units on the train. Today ranks right up there, with a UP unit leading, and a FURX ex BNSF unit trailing. We see the train at Chemung, where it is interesting to note how the foliage has grown over the years. Look at some of the shots in my albums taken in the early 90s, when there was hardly a tree here. Now you cant see around the curve to the old Erie station.
