On April 24, 2020, Mohawk, Adirondack & Northern's Alco's Nos. 2453, 2456 & 805 brought a 76-car train north out of Utica NY on the road's 45-mile Lyons Falls line. Four cars were bulkhead flats consigned to 3B Timber, Boonville, one car, a covered hopper, was consigned to Bailey's Boonville Mill and the remaining seventy-one cars, all tanks, were to be stored north of Boonville on otherwise unused track.

Scenes of the big train as it headed up Remsen hill are featured in my video, "Roaring Up Remsen Hill!!," posted on this channel.

This video contains views of the train's moves, both switching and shoving, in Boonville, after switching occurred to spot the bulkhead flats and re-position the engines.

Included here is switching at Bailey's Boonville Mill, which drew these comments from Trainorders member pdt: "Wow! An old fashion 2 car gravity dump trestle siding. Shades of when every branch line in the northeast had several coal company consignees with coal dump trestles."
