Norfolk Southern on the R&IT

Railfanning is an adventure, you never know what you're going to see coming down the tracks next! Here we see Norfolk Southern power leading a heavy train over the R&IT, seen here passing the Rochester Amtrak station downtown. This NS train will continue east to Geneva, then head south to Corning and the Southern Tier. Photo by J.C. Mayer

Syracuse Train Show

This weekend, November 6th and 7th, is the annual train show at the Fairgrounds in Syracuse. RITMRC will be making an appearance there, although more muted than in years past. We will be in the back of the Americraft Center of Progress building, semi-attached to the Free-mo layout there. We will be selling our world-famous hoppers and boxcars. The models are custom-made by Accurail, and are on sale at the show, get both for only $30!

Also, don't forget that our annual Tiger Tracks Train Show is quickly coming up, on December 4th and 5th at the Gordon Field House here at RIT! Hope to see you there.
