Even switchers got the new scheme. I am not aware of any other end cab units on the roster, but this one, an ex SP unit judging by the lights, looks good in the G&W family colors, seen at Brooks Av.
R&S train RS 1 for Salamanca got out late in the afternoon on a rainy day. I caught him at Pavilion while there was still a little light left.
SR 2 works at P&L Junction near Leroy NY
Rochester & Southern train SR 2 rolls past the B&O station at Caledonia with 35 cars, a classic brick station. For some reason, B&O liked the Spanish style.
RS 2, headed for Salamanca, is about to get underway at Brooks Av yard in Rochester, at the former B&O station, now their yard office. .

BPRR 3101 about to pass the station in Mt. Morris after picking up a string of cars at the salt plant.
Taken from a gas station parking lot off Route 408.
BPRR 3303 pulls the emptys into the mine, with the other four trailing.
The crew stopped down at the shops short to the north of the bridge, where they took 3103 out of the shop, and placed it on the front of the train, and then placed 3000 (fourth out) in the shops. The consist was now 3103-879-104-3107-3101. This took about 45 minutes, then they came around the curve smoking up approaching Route 63.

The engineer of RSR 104 reads the paper while their train is stopped at Orchard Park, NY. Again, as with this whole album, dates are unsure, except that they're between '85 and '87.
