Eastern Railroad Discussion > Rome Haul: MA&N Utica-Rome NY Via CSX Main ("Olive Oil Express")Date: 07/30/15 09:44 Rome Haul: MA&N Utica-Rome NY Via CSX Main ("Olive Oil Express") Author: ut-1 Here we have Mohawk, Adirondack & Northern 2453 (Alco,C425) leading an eleven car freight out of MA&N's Utica, NY yard onto the CSX main. The short freight will travel approx a dozen miles on CSX before reaching MA&N rails in Rome where the crew will switch two industries. The Alco smokes it up a bit as it heads out of Utica this morning in a pretty good rainstorm.
I jokingly refer to this train as the "Olive Oil Express" as it contains 10 tank cars for an olive oil distributor. You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos. Join Today!

I think back to how many times this unit painted in EL colors was on the tracks in the foreground coming or going to Binghamton on trains NE74-97 I also have never seen many pictures of the MA&N Alcos storming down the mainline to Rome. Reminds me of when the PC (CR) / B&M pool train ran into Dewitt, there being very few pictures I have ever seen of B&M GP-9's storming down the Mohawk Valley.
