The Buffalo Line is Norfolk Southern's mainline north out of Harrisburg, PA. The single track line runs north out of Harrisburg along the Susquehanna River to Sunbury, PA where the line junctions with the Norfolk Southern Sunbury Line at Kase. At Kase, the Buffalo Line continues north to Northumberland and Lock Haven, PA while the Sunbury Line branches off to the right to head north to Wilkes-Barre, PA and eventually Binghamton, NY. The Buffalo Line sees daily manifest freights along with the occasional coal train to/from the RJ Corman at Keating, PA and occasional gypsum train to/from the Strawberry Ridge power plant at Strawberry Ridge, PA. The line has numerous passing sidings along its entire length and a small yard in Northumberland plays host to several local freights and a freight from the North Shore Railroad.
