Chasing an Ex-Conrail Dash 7 Along the Auburn Road
Ойын-сауық
Still wearing its Conrail blue, Finger Lakes Railway's GE B23-7 #1943 leads train GC-2 out of Geneva, NY with another Dash 7 and west along the former New York Central Auburn Road bound for Canandaigua! Along the way, the short and slow freight passes some beautiful scenery and sights of the old railroad days, like the Clifton Springs freight depot and passenger station, before making a quick detour onto former Ontario Central trackage, a small portion of the Lehigh Valley Sayre-Buffalo main, to set out a refrigerated boxcar at Leonard's Express!

Another great video! Nice to see the Dash 7's working. Thanks for letting all of us tag along!

Nice Catch On The Older GE's Still Going Strong
Very cool pair of engines. Looks like they added on to the station to create a larger library. I really like how they kept the architecture. That track could use some upkeep though.

I was hoping they'd use some of their Dash 7s today, but I was pleasantly surprised to see 1943 leading! As for the station, I always figured that's the size it originally was, though now that you mention it, it is roughly twice the size of all the other stations along this route, so you might be right on it being added on to. The track could definitely use some TLC; I forgot how excruciatingly slow this train runs, and I'd have to say the track conditions are to blame. Then again, this portion of the line is only used twice a week so the tracks are probably "good enough for government work." 😆
Quite the historic line.
Love the engines on here as I haven't seen either of them before... Got some fantastic footage at a few prime locations !!!

Thanks a lot! These old Dash 7s remind of my childhood; their six-axle counterparts were everywhere on the Conrail system!
OLD SCHOOL power 🔥👌🏽
Great chase 👍
This GE is remote controled?
