Genesee & Wyoming Heritage on the Old B&O Main

Recently painted in Genesee & Wyoming's whisker scheme, and number after the year the railroad first began operations, GNWR C44-9W #1899 and a pair of other ex-BNSF Dash 9s led Buffalo & Pittsburgh's southbound manifest SIRI from Salamanca, NY and into Pennsylvania, the Keystone State, along the former Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh / Baltimore & Ohio mainline on a beautiful and hot early June morning!

If I was the engineer I would have tossed a line out the window until we got the high ball. 🤫

[@natgass8102]

when did CSX give up the old B&O track, when they split conrail up with NS? thanks

[@jerrysimon793]

I hope they wander over here to the mechanicville yard

[@yankee1789]

Even the fish gather to watch the trains, I guess

[@mattygunn693]

I'm probably wrong, but I'm gonna say they were catfish, just to go along with that GE's beautiful whisker scheme 😎
