Blasting though |
| Description: |
TV 303 rolls triumphally down Court St past BD as it heads west into the Susquehanna valley, having overcome Gulf Summit and the Delaware division. It will be in Buffalo this evening. That "Dicks" sign to the left of the lead unit marks the location of the first Dicks Sporting Goods store, opened in 1947. |

Off the bridge |

TV 303 rolls off the bridge over the East Branch of the Delaware River at Hancock. The clearance shows why the Erie was the choice for high and wide shipments. |

View from on high |
| Description: |
One of the most scenic routes in the east is the Delaware valley. As evidence, I submit this shot of TV 303 rolling over the Mill Rift bridge-see the stack cars in the distance-as the power runs along the river. This was taken from a pull out on NY 97 across the river in Hawks Nest NY. |

Crew change and go |
| Description: |
Conrails stack trains got out of Croxton overnight, but were usually held at Sloatsburg for the inbound commuter trains. This got them to Port Jervis around mid morning. Its about 1030 and TV 303 is making its crew change and will be on its way up the Delaware momentarily. Of note, the obelisk on the mountain top in the distance is the highest point in New Jersey, in appropriately named High Point State Park. It sits at 1803 feet above sea level. |

Headed back |

Two days prior to this shot, I had chased a TV 303 west on the Southern Tier Line with this power. Now its Saturday, and the set is headed back east on a merchandise train, seen crossing US 20 in South Bend. |

Gloomy OIBU |
| Description: |
The spring of 1991 had a lot of rainy days. We were used to this in the Tier, so we went out to chase anyway, since all the usual rail susoects would be out, in this case, OIBU with 90 cars behind a pair of GEs. |

Desert Storm |
| Description: |
We see OIBU at CP Johnson on the west side as it pickes up the empty coal hoppers pulled earlier from the NYSEG Goundy Station. The 144 car train is notable, aside from its length, for the second unit, a yellow ribbon painted on the side of SD 50 6707 to honor the troops who have gone to liberate Kuwait in the first Gulf War. |
