HLCX power in Rochester

I'm glad that rebuilder opened up in Dansville, N.Y.! We get to see some cool stuff pass through Rochester yard. Right now there are two Metro North cars in the yard, albeit in a bad spot for photography, and a string of HLCX units on 4 main! In the mix are an SD-40, 2 SD-40-2's and 2 SD-45's. They were just sitting there quietly, basking in the sun this afternoon! Of course I am just speculating that they came from or are on their way to Dansville, but it's a good guess.

What do an ex-SOO and a Pumpkin have in common?

Answer, they were both in Rochester this winter. This winter we have had some cool stuff come through here, besides the snow that is! One morning after a Dr's appointment we caught this "Pumpkin" on 3 main after they picked up some cars from the yard. It looks like they ran out of decals when doing the number boards on the CSX unit, they are in 2 different fonts! A few weeks before that I spotted a "black lined" former SOO line SD on the "old hole" tracks in the yard. Finally on Wednesday I shot this former Conrail GP-15 ! I love railfanning Rochester!
