(top) This is Amtrak's train number 48 The Lake Shore Limited heading east through Rochester, NY. The time was about 20 minutes to 10 am so I think it may have been a bit late.

(middle) The two Genesis locomotives are in the classic back-to-back mode on the head end today. Two engines are needed on the Lake Shore as the train is normaly 2 to 3 times the size of average Empire Corridor trains.

(bottom) On both the east and west bound Lake Shore, numbers 48 and 49 respectively, dinning car service is available in addition to Amcafe service. The dinning cars are mostly older cars of New York Central heritage. The experience of eating in a real dinning car is something every traveller should do at least once!
