I spent last Friday in NY's Southern Tier region again. The weather was nearly perfect.
The day began at the Bath & Hammondsport RR's yard in Cohocton. S1 #4 (a former NKP unit) was sitting behind the engine house again:

Further east, NS H77 was working the yard in Gang Mills:

The B&H local ran with a pack of Aclo/MLW power that looked and sounded great. Crossing the Cohocton River in Coopers Plains:

Thje afternoon was equally enjoyable.

Although NS 206 does run east of Buffalo on occasion, NS 2*N usually forwards the intemrodal traffic to merchanicaville... including this trip:
