Ready to go back
Title:  Ready to go back
Description:  CSX power often ran through on PYRP from Potomac Yard, and was turned at Binghamton. One such set is seen at East Binghamton. It will take RPPY south later this afternoon. Note the ex L&N unit. Didnt see many of these. Note the ex RDG unit switching in the background with some ex Reading box cars.

RPPY
Title:  RPPY
Description:  RPPY rolls south behind a set of CSX power, which was typical south of Binghamton. Here it is approaching the PA 706 bridge, just south of New Milford. This shot is much more difficult now, as its become quite treed in.

Catching rays
Title:  Catching rays
Description:  RPPY rolls south out of East Binghamton at Shaws Rd in Conklin behind a set of CSX power, including an untouched-except for the number-L&N GP 40. The sun had been playing hide and seek all day, so it was nice to get this in one of the few sunny moments.
