A few points to clarify. First off, the Southern Tier Line is the former Erie Railroad Mainline. The Southern Tier Line extends from Suffern west to Buffalo, New York not Port Jervis. The segment between Port Jervis, NY and Binghamton, NY currently sees no through NS trains but has local service. There are triweekly through trains run by the NYS&W on trackage rights from Binghamton to Little Ferry, NJ. NS runs from Suffern to Croxton Yard over rights on NJT. Werst of Binghamton traffic on the Tier is now much more robust with run through CN trains and a pair of General Merchandise trains running to Allentown and Enola respectively. Also there are several through unit coal trains to local coal burning power generating stations. Of course, there is also significant local service and there are CP Rail (D&H) trackage rights trains travelling between Binghamton and Buffalo. So, the west end of the Tier is again a busy line. <br /> <br />
