| Title: |
PYRP arrives |
| Description: |
PYRP crosses Terrace Drive and enters the East Binghamton yard. Power is typical, but today we have something different, rebuilt GP 38-2 7312, just in from M-K in Mountain Top PA. Note the railfan chase vehicle in the foreground. This was a Canadian built Chevy Celebrity for the Canadian market-the speed read in kilometers per hour, and the odometer counted kilometers. It took some adjusting to figure out how far and fast you were going. I got pretty good at multiplying everything by 5/8ths. |

New arrival |
| Description: |
Not only todays PYPR, but this rebuilt GP38-2. It looks good, and will be one of the last survivors in that scheme. It was still wearing it in 2015, a full 25 years after it was rebuilt. |

Whod believe it?? |
| Description: |
Power from NYSW, NS, CSX, and even New Jersey short line Rahway Valley is at the East Binghamton engine house. Ten years earlier, if you told someone you would see this set up, theyd be checking your meds. |
