Knocking it down |
| Description: |
Well, in a moment. The semaphores response once a train hit the circuit was sometimes not immediate. It was fun to watch them drop. |

By the feed mill |
| Description: |
There were several industries east of downtown Waverly. The siding in the foreground goes to a place that makes brake parts for cars. There was a pet food plant, the other this big Agway feel mill. Both were Conrail customers, and MEBU will not be stopping to set off any of its 115 cars. |

Through the mud |
| Description: |
This field next to NY 17C at the foot of the overpass changed condition periodically. At one point, there had been an aggregate plant here-see photos in various Morning Sun books on the EL-but by the time I arrived in 1988, there were no structures on the parcel. It did get dug up from time to time. This was one of those times, and we see a 64 car BUME rolling past on its way east. |

Sky of gray, sea of green |
| Description: |
With apologies to the Beatles. Sky of blue was a some time thing in this region, but the green was everywhere, even on the diesels. MEBU and 68 cars in the green of summer corn. |

Used to be three here |
| Description: |
MEBU rolls west at Waverly, where there is a lot of space between tracks 1 and 2. Up til the end of EL days, there was a siding between the two, one of two places on the Tier where this existed, the other being on the Buffalo Sub at Canaseraga. |

Flying meet |
| Description: |
Catching a meet on a double track railroad is a chancy prospect: you have to be in exactly the right place at exactly the right time. I was on this day, as BUME behind a set of NYSW power, meets TV 203 at speed. Shot from the car window. |
