Hey guys,

I'm in Batavia for just today only, and i'm curious as to what there is to railfan regarding GVT operations?
Quick responses are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

If you're there NOW, they may be done for the day.............

But anyway..........there's a crossing on Rte 98 south of Rte 5. There's a crossing on Treadeasy (I think that's the name) just off 33 as you head out of town West. Not a ton of options.

If you park in the area south of the CSX crossing on Donahue Rd you can see the interchange and sometimes *IF YOU'RE LUCKY* the Alco will be there doing work.

Good luck!
