On Wisconsin
Title:  On Wisconsin
Description:  Wisconsin Central in this case. Train 41T makes its way through East Binghamton as it heads toward BD and home rails for the trip to Buffalo with a GP 40-2 in the mix. Seeing various component roads in the mix was not taht unusual-the next unit is a repainted IC unit-but the WC power tended to be SD 45's, and four axle power was not that common. Todays train has 31 cars.

41T in the gloom
Title:  41T in the gloom
Description:  Weather in Binghamton was not always sunny. Of course, thats when all the good stuff ran. Todays 41T follows that pattern, with a WC unit in the mix as the train heads for BD on a cloudy day.
