NYSW 3040
Title:  NYSW 3040
Description:  NYS&W GP40 #3040 heads out onto the street-running portion of the Utica Branch at Schuyler Street. The building mounted to the tower just to the left of the locomotive actually dates back to the canal days and was relocated, and mounted on this tower, by the DL&W in 1952 to control the crossing gates along the street from. Amazingly, this tower was in use until 1987, when the NYS&W finally automated all the crossing gates along this stretch of street-running. The NRHS chapter bought it and has restored and preserved it.

NYSW 3040
Title:  NYSW 3040
Description:  Having hopped off the DL&W line and onto ex-West Shore tracks, UT-1 prepares to cross French Road at road level and then pass underneath the North South Arterial Highway. In the foreground, the track headed to the left is a continuation of the old New York, West Shore & Buffalo and heads north to New York Mills, while the line to the right is NYO&W tracks and heads southwest to Ontario Ave, where it stub-ends and then the train will reverse down the old New Hartford Industrial Switch. There originally would have been a diamond here, with the NYO&W continuing off to the left, but in 1971 the EL and PC implemented an agreement whereby PC would tear out all the ex-West Shore through the city, and the multiple crossings from East Utica, and would utilize the Erie-Lackawanna Schuyler Street trackage south to the E-L/West Shore diamond and then cut over on a turnout so PC could access the New York Mills business. It also allowed Erie-Lackawanna to abandon their ex-NYO&W trackage from Canal Branch under Burrstone Bridge to the O&W/West Shore diamond past the GE French Road plant by utilizing a short distance of the West Shore.

Description:  Having set off the three covered hoppers behind the extended-height boxcar, UT-1 then headed down the West Shore line to New York Mills. This is where the line crosses Burrstone Road, with McCraith Beverage off to the left. McCraith is an occasional customer of the NYS&W, but they weren't stopping there today.
