Those ALCOs were preparing their train of storage cars to go north to Boonville - about 30 miles.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doqxgr2tpG0&t=1s

Not my video, by the way.

In several of your shots looking east, you can see the smoke from a major fire in an industrial facility on Utica's east side.

And parked on the north side of the station is Adirondack Scenic Railroad equipment, including the locomotives I usually run.

Utica Union Station is a beautiful facility, fortunately saved by the county from who knows what fate.  As can be seen in some of the shots, the bridge is a popular place from which to watch trains.

Thanks for the info Larry, it was great to see the C-425's smoking and chattering.

MWHA 805, still in BCR paint, was EL 2455

MWHA 2456, in GVT paint, was BCR 2456 and EL 2456

MWHA 2042, red, white, and blue, was BCR 642, and is the movie star of the bunch, having appeared in the movie "Atomic Train."  The lettering for the movie used to be visible.
