At cp286 at the western end of DeWitt yard. Had things to do in Syracuse so a perfect time to get some railfan time before and after. A couple of interesting to me catches. A Intermodal with a lot of spine cars....I know, but I like them. Two Manifests with DPU's :)
-
And a Sperry Rail Service car. ALWAYS interesting to rail fan the ex NYC Main around Syracuse :)

When I first was rail fanning CSX I rarely saw EMD's anywhere other than in the yards switching. But then the sd70ac rebuilds started to show up and now what used to be rare is really common now. This is a typical sample :)
-
CSX X409 West Bound with 416 axles , until it had to stop and cut out a car on the other side of town (This at MP280 Kirkville , They stopped at MP298 Blocking a cross road, had to split the train cut out a car, reconnect and go..... BUT I got them here with ALL the cars :)

So this is some video shots in the East Syracuse & Minoa New York area
-
A couple of my favorites. Prolly should put up a video of the Mohawk Sub as well. This one is the "Best" Rochester Sub East of Rochester NY
-
Lot's of interesting stuff in this one. A REAL busy day on the CSX Main line. This is AFTER the Baltimore disaster and I have to wonder if re-routing and other issues are part of the reason for the increased traffic.
-
Focused on a couple of manifests, first one with EMD power trailing. Unusual EMD's
