Eastern Railroad Discussion > Sunday D&H

Kinda got hosed today. Missed the 205 but caught 30T at Richmondville and then decided to go after the 11R. However he was sitting at Mechanicville and I was not sure when he was going to leave. Of course it was while stopped having very late lunch, so did not catch him until coming off the hill at MP 507 - Schoharie Junction. And that was the day's shoot.

1. NS 9559 and 9328 attack Richmondville Hill with Train 30T. The big dogs are really barking ! Richmondville, NY

2. The late 11R rounds the bend under heavy gloomy clouds at MP 507 approaching Schoharie Junction descending the grade from Esperance to the Schoharie Creek. Power is NS 7588, 9480 and 8178.

Is the 205 going thru here still? What is it's current route during the hoosac tunnel issues?
Thanks!
