On Saturday, 1/4/2025, a few friends and I made the trek out to Buffalo early in the morning in search of a few good trains that were in the area. We started on CSX with M385 featuring an EMD trio, Amtrak 48 with the heritage 164 trailing along with M561 as well. Moving over to NS, we chased intermodal train 264 with an SD70ACe duo for a little bit before going back to Buffalo and it was back to CSX. We ended up going to CP DRAW where we first caught empty coal train E655 with a solo YN2 AC44 leading. After that, it was time to get in position for I165, the CPKC westbound run through intermodal which on this day had a CP SD70ACU leading, a BNSF SD70ACe 2nd and a KCS in 3rd. We would end up chasing this out to North East, PA and also getting E655 again as well. About a minute after I165, the eastbound counterpart I166 came flying east as a nice surprise. Next up was getting NS local C93 crossing Unity Island into Canada and to finish off the day, we would see CSX I019 blasting through Corfu with the Chessie heritage unit leading. Overall a great first NY state adventure for 2025!
