- On 8/1, I would meet up with @BuffaloSouthernrailfan, @buffalo716railran, & @westernnewyorkrailfan for our first and final chase of the Strates Shows 100th Anniversary Erie County Fair Train. After not running for four straight years, Strates shows would decide to bring back The Erie County Fair Train for one final run over the Buffalo Southern Railroad. Due to the cost of hauling the train up to Buffalo via CSX, as well as Strates Shows favoring to transport all the fair equipment by truck, the Erie County Fair Train would make one final run over the Buffalo Southern, concluding this iconic 100 year Western New York Tradition. We would catch BSOR MLW C424 4212 as it ran light with the caboose over the GB Diamond in Blasdell to pick up the train at Buffalo Creek Yard. Once the train was hooked up, we would catch the Fair Train heading South at Lake Avenue in Blasdell and Church Street in Hamburg before concluding our chase! Enjoy one final look at this iconic Western New York Tradition!
Great shot from the diamond! What a fun and historic morning!

Great catches man, looked like a fun day!

Looks like they just made one more trip for show. Majority of the workers and equipment drove in to the fairgrounds and a few vehicles drove up to Buffalo and onto flat beds to take pictures to be framed in a hall on the grounds.
@@briank.8925 Yep, the train was just for show and most of the rides and equipment were brought up by truck.
Well done video!
@@buffalo716railran Thanks!
Glad I was there the whole morning just waiting for that train
