After we left Canaan that day (see previous video of mine), we headed to the CSX yard in Selkirk, NY, but after driving around the vicinity of the yard for a bit, we confirmed our belief that there is no easy access to see any action in the yard. So we moved onto our next stop of the day: Voorheesville.
We figured we'd get some decent action on the CSX Selkirk Sub, with the bonus of getting to see the as yet inactive NS Voorheesville Connector to see the future route of Pan Am Southern's intermodal trains to Ayer, MA. We saw a number of trains there, took some pictures of the new junction, and had lunch at the Northern Barrell Pub right down the street (within walking distance!). All was excellent!
This was the second train we saw in Voorheesville. It was an eastbound intermodal monster, with a whopping 225 cars, mostly wells but with some flats on the tail end, plus the bonus of the geometry boxcar on the headpin. Oh, and it had an SD70MAC leader, which is moderately rare - especially for us MA railfans!
I will publish a couple more videos from that day, including another movie with several more trains in Voorheesville.
I hope you like it!
