TVs past the station |
| Description: |
A 58 car eastbound TV train rolls past the 1957 NYC station built at Dewitt to replace the Art Deco station downtown on Erie Blvd when the passenger line was abandoned to build I 690. That building served as a bus terminal until the transportation center out at Carousel Mall opened in the late 90s, an event which also closed this station. |

A slightly different angle of a train seen elsewhere. CR had a big stable of 4 axle GEs that were common on these trains, especially on the Chicago Line, which was ideal for them. Three do the honors here on a 65 car TV 79. |

Four motors east |
| Description: |
Mostly-the trailing unit is an SD 40-2. Conrail was not shy about running four axle power on big trains, though here on the ex NYC it was a common thing for a long time. Still, its quite a contrast to todays world of six axle power on everything. This 115 car DNDA was eastbound at Dewitt. |

Stacks past the station |
| Description: |
Conrail as a rule would run trains away from the platforms for obvious reasons. Sometimes they found it necessary to run a train in the platform track, and it was quite impressive to see a stack train rolling past your nose, such as this one on a rainy Monday. |

The Syracuse station was the ex NYC facility put up in the late 50s across from Dewitt yard after the passenger line downtown was abandoned. Now its I 690, and the station is out by Carousel Mall. |

Rolling out to Buffalo |
| Description: |
SYNS 6 rolls out the west end of Dewitt with 81 cars for NS at Buffalo. Must be a bitter pill for a train on the ex NYC to hand off cars to the ex NKP. Check the Shawmut hoppers at right. |

Rolling past the station |
| Description: |
Sometimes trains bypassing Dewitt yard would roll past on the station track, such as this 136 car westbound. The odd road number is due to Conrail starting up a fleet of lease units, which were renumbered to distinguish them from their system power. They took a page out of New Havens playbook, giving them a leading zero on the road numbers. |

Super vans |
| Description: |
Conrail, perhaps in a marketing move, decided to call some of its intermodal trains "Super Vans." They looked a lot like stack, TOFC and COFC trains. This one is SV 14 arriving at Dewitt with 115 stack platforms, heading for the pig terminal. |
