Indian Summer in New York State

Received the following via email from Kermit Geary, Jr. Text, photos, and captions are his.

Spent a RARE SUNNY weekend in November with two close friends railfanning the Rochester - Syracuse New York region. Caught some unusual power lash-ups as well as some shortline action. The trailing unit in the 8810 lashup is a Nashville Star Commuter loco # 120. The Finger Lakes provided a freight and a passenger train in Solvay, NY ...opted to follow the freight for a while.
