Good ride |
| Description: |
THe D&H and B&M had run through power from Mechanicville to Oneonta, though sometimes the power would get to Binghamton or even farther, given the condition of D&H diesels. Most of the time, ht was battered GP 9s, with GP 38s showing up from time to time. Today, this crew got lucky, drawing a set of spanking new B&M GP 40-2s, the last new power the B&M would get as an independent road. This train was a tough chase, especially on two lane NY 7-this was before I 88 was built-and this was the only shot I got of him. |

B&M leader westbound |
| Description: |
A B&M GP40-2 leads this westbound train out of Conklin yard as seen from the Conklin Av overpass. The trailing unit is notable, as it was one of the three ex Illinois Terminal SD 39's Guilford acquired from NS. |
