B&O crew switching inside Kodak
Title:  B&O crew switching inside Kodak
Description:  Date unknown but late 60s. Back when the snow piled up, you could get reasonable views over the fence. Note the EKCX hoppers in the foreground. I doubt they went outside the property - probably just for moving around coal to the various furnaces / power plants / etc.

Ex-DT&I wagontop boxcars inside Kodak
Title:  Ex-DT&I wagontop boxcars inside Kodak
Description:  Date unknown but late 60s. EK 172 is ex-DT&I ("We have the CONNECTIONS"). Apparently, a number of these cars were sold to a private individual and moved over the NYC (PC) to Palmyra NY. They remained parked under the Rt. 21 overpass on a disconnected spur for many years until they were finally scrapped.

Eastman Kodak #6 (80 Ton) and #9 (RS-1) shoving hard uphill.
Title:  Eastman Kodak #6 (80 Ton) and #9 (RS-1) shoving hard uphill.
Description:  Approximate photo date summer 1975. PC dropped off the coal earlier that day. The EK crew is sorting it out and storing it in tracks on the west side of the plant. This is a true double-header since the units are not MU equipped. The view is from the Dewey Ave. overpass looking to the west. Both engines now reside at the Rochester & Genesee Valley RR Museum.
