Tom Beckett General Nice shot of an LV pup, which were legion. Sayre shops were torn down in the late 80's, and what was left became a contract repair shop for rolling stock-GE Railcar was there for a while; I don't know who runs it now, By the time I lived there in the late 80's, what had been a somewhat busy railroad had dwindled to one road train each way daily, with coal trains for NYSEG Milliken, north of Ithaca, coming down from the Southern Tier, changing ends, and heading up what was under Conrail, the Ithaca Branch. Almost everything west of here-actually, Van Etten Jct, about 15 miles to the north(timetable west on the LV) was pulled not long after C-day in 1976. In its day, Sayre was quite a place. LV built their own steam engines here, and in the diesel era, you could find all kinds of F's and FA's, and later, the D&H Sharks were regular visitors. 8/28/2024 4:16:53 AM
