NYSW 4052 and Southern 4610 Pass Through FW in Buffalo, August 4, 1998

While I was waiting for the Strates carnival train at the site of old FW interlocking in Buffalo, I happened to notice a yellow faced loco in the distance on the Bison Runner by SK yard. A quick peek with the binocs showed it to be a Susie Q SD70M. I set up the vid cam for the runby and grabbed the SLR for some stills. As the scanner chatter shows, there was also a CP transfer coming around the Howard Street Runner for Bison Yard. I managed to get distracted enough to not notice the Southern green painted GP59 4610 hiding among the NS black units and it actually startled me when I realized what it was. That's the reason for the jerky tripod action. Not bad for bonus video tho. The Susie Q train was off the Southern Tier on its way to NS' BC Jct Yard. The Strates train came by shortly thereafter, it's the next upload.
