TV-77
Conrail train TV-77 leaves Hornell, NY with consecutively numbered SD-40's 6241 & 6242 on March 22, 1980. It was highly unusual for CR units to run long hood forward, but it was the norm on the D&H trains that had N&W power. CASS Tower stands in the background behind the signal. TV-77 and TV-98 initially ran up the line to Meadville, but by this time they were running up the line to Buffalo. The line to Meadville can be seen branching off between the signal and the tower. The snow belies the fact that Spring has finally arrived in Upstate New York, as Winter just does not want to quit.
