Its been a while and before my camera quit on me, I had a few last pics to upload. Here are some recent images taken along the NYS&W. as usual, comments are welcome.
Starting off, here is a shot of some of the fleet in the snow just after the Valentine's day snowfall:

In the next few images, i was able to catch one detour. not having the luxury of time, this was the pretty much the only one i caught, a Q111 detour. Note how the NYSW placed 20 cars of contaminated soil at the ehad end, which, BTW went all the way west to Chicago on the train! Anyway, here's the firs of the series, taken at Hawthorne:

Next just west of Newfoundland at Cozy Lake Rd:
