We'll go from orange leader on the 'sabber to orange leader at a more populated location, the beautiful hamlet of Cambridge, NY.
Last fall Mr. Twombly and I made out like bandits following a full round trip on the Battenkill. The southbound spent time playing with clouds but as usual with a ten mph train it was possible to find gaps. I think the next day was 2102 in the rain at Tamaqua Tunnel. In fact this was part of the epic 46 hour run I've brought up a couple times.
Also, this was the time they took a while to leave the banana and the six axle flat behind in the woods so I strolled up the street to an antique shop looking for lanterns. I walked out and the gates were already going down so I had to make an ass outta myself to get back in position for this shot. Worth it.
Penn Central two RS3 (5351-5228) in CNR yard. I would guess that these two represent the New York Central's once very busy presence across the Niagara Peninsula, cutting a double track swath from Detroit to Buffalo. By this time, that presence was fading fast.

If only.... Erie Western RS3 1602 heads back to join its Alco sister at Huntington, IN. The all Alco road was so neat that you knew it couldn't last, but if only it did...Could you imagine what it would look like today?
A late 1955 Alco product, LIRR #1556 hauled freight and passengers out of New York City for 23 years prior to being retired. This Labor Day weekend scene from 1971 shows the four-axle workhorse rolling a short freight pass the station platforms in suburban Flushing, NY. The loco also spent eight years on the roster of the Gettysburg RR.
The #1556, which has been restored to its original gray and orange LIRR livery, is currently on display at the Railroad Museum of Long Island in Riverhead, NY.
I remember a magazine article from 40 years ago referring to the state of New York as the Alco Empire. A quick search and it was Railfan & Railroad's March 1982 issue. I probably ran across it in or around 1998 as part of one of the massive boxes of back issues I bought at train shows around the Hudson Valley. I still have many of those back issues in my library.
As has been documented amazingly little has changed. New York is still ground zero for Alco power. Although some roads can be grouped together via family affiliation (LAL & GVT roads) there are still at least 12 Alco operators in the state I can think of off the top of my head. Only one is a recent convert though, the Arcade & Attica.
This RS3 has spent the majority of it's life in New York. Born as a D&H locomotive, famous for it's run in bicentennial paint that lasted long into it's tourist hauling days on the Tioga Central and then painted into the NKP gloss black of the Blabey system before being sold to the Arcade & Attica last year to replace the use of their iconic orange centercabs in freight service.
After running lite to interchange the now ARA 114 is on the outskirts of the village of Arcade traversing trackage that doesn't serve tourists. Thanks Otto!
Central Railroad Company of New Jersey RS3 1542 at Jenkintown, Pennsylvania on an unknown day in July 1963, Kodachrome by unknown photographer, Chuck Zeiler collection. The slide mount notes that this was Train No. 373. Note the extra pipe on the hood just forward of the cab.
Between weekday work train duties on the former New Haven shore line, an Amtrak RS3 spends the weekend next to the Thames River in New London, Connecticut. The view is from the Fishers Island ferry slip.
New Haven was the maintenance base for many of Amtrak’s RS3’s. Here three of them idle in front of the former NYNH&H shops.
Penn Central diesel electric locomotives EMD SW1200 # 9195, ALCO RS3 # 5482 & EMD GP9B # 3808 are seen in the former New Haven Railroad Cedar Hill Yard at New Haven, Connecticut, 1972. In the back ground other locomotives such as EMD GP9's and GE U25B's are seen. The catenary has been long gone since the New Haven Railroad days of the late 1950's and early 1960's, and the yard is just a shadow of itself by this time due to the removal of numerous tracks. Bob Hughes was able to photograph this view I believe from one of the various overhead walkways that were situated in the yard area. Notice that you can clearly see the engineer in the cab of the EMD SW1200 switcher in the bright sunlight. Deep in the background you can see one of the old roundhouses.
