B705, with CN 3863 and CN 3099, tied down at Belle Isle in Solvay, NY
This ariel view looking is looking across B705 in the Belle Isle siding, toward the FGLK yard at Solvay, NY. After photographing Z520-10 on Tuesday , I noticed that loaded ethanol train B705, with CN 3863 and CN 3099, was tied down in Belle Isle siding. With the drone still in the air I captured this view, looking west, of B705 sitting at Belle Isle with the Finger Lakes Railway (FLGK) yard behind the train. The industrial complex right behind the rail yard is the former Syracuse Energy Corp. (SEC) cogeneration power plant. The coal-fired power plant supplied electricity and steam power to nearby companies. In September 2013, the plant closed when its biggest customer built and began using its own power plant. Per a news article at Syracuse.com, The customer built its own power plant due to concerns about SEC keeping the plant open. Photograph taken on October 10, 2023, at Solvay, NY.

Marvelous shot, Tom. That's a beautiful sky and the color of the water is fantastic, both perfect backgrounds for the clarity of the boats. I'd love to be on any one of those at the moment.
