- Watch NYS&W's UT-1 on a rare Saturday run as it switches Utica, NY area customers on May 25, 2019. The video opens with No. 3040 at the new South Utica "run-around." Next, UT-1 is on the former Utica Branch of the NY Ontario & Western in New Hartford. Views of No. 3040 on the former West Shore's New York Mills spur are also included.
We end with views of the freight heading down Utica's Schuyler Street.
run around the steel for DI. Set 3 boxes and pull 3 from recycler in new Hartford, Swap a covered hopper of pellets (loads in empties out) at Fountain Head on the way to DI in the Mills. Pull an empty from McCrath and move it to the north end for the trip back to the yard. 3040 is a fixture in town.
"The Utica Switch" sounds like a 30s dance craze lol

Then you hop around the room
In your underwear
Ain't never been nothin' quite like this
Come on baby it's the Utica Switch..."
A lot of cool switching, GREAT CATCH!
I still can't wait to see one of their mainline freights detoured up the Utica branch that would be a sight!
Must be switching paper for Dunder Mifflin!
Great video from Okeechobee Florida.
love watchin switchers
I really enjoyed this video! I love videos of the local switching and rural railroading.
That highway company seems to be taking more steel loads business must be good. I'm going to make it down there to see the train running down the street. Thank for the video!?!!! Looks like some new cars their pulling!!!!!!!
Green is beautiful.
Another excellent Railroading Rambler production!! The street running is really cool.
Love the old tower. Preemption with the traffic lights?
I see the tracks are in the same condition as Utica roads. 👍
Tracks are in much better condition.
Thank you for sharing brings back great memories
Parabéns bela filmagem.
Love switching operations!
Show! Está e a minha ferrovia preferida
Gracias me alegra que te haya gustado el video!
Nice video and shooting
Beautiful old engine and street running what more can you ask for. Oh ya I guess a bunch of old jointed rail that's pretty shaky looking.
Powerful might
The NYS&W is the railroad of the Chinese steam locomotive?
I am really enjoying all your videos. I have a quick question; do the crews ever use the run-around just north of Clinton Street on the New York Mills spur? Boy, the conductor really gets a workout on this spur.
It is used all the time, especially to re-position cars for Fountainhead.
@@railroadingrambler218 Cool. Thanks for the info. I wish I understood operations better. I had assumed there was a problem with the run-around since they do such a long shove for DI Highway. Thanks again!
What is the green elevated thing right at the end?
nice
I have never seen a run with a car in front and car's in tow.
God forbid the owners should upgrade or replace the twisted rails and 150 yr-old ties on this line...😠
Hey Silly Wabbit, those aren't ties. They are splinters of wood all pointing in the same direction...
(kinda like that joke about helicopters are just 250,000 pieces all flying in the same direction)
