Yard tower |
| Description: |
Even the yard structures were built to last forever. This yard tower at East Binghamton was built with reinforced concrete, just like everything else the Lackawanna built in that era. An ex Reading GP 39 works in the yard. |

Pulling up after set off |
| Description: |
The power off PYRP pulls up to cross back over to its train after setting off cars. This view shows the shop building, now largely unoccupied, as all locomotive work is done elsewhere. We see a couple of pieces of D&H equipment, though. A wide vision caboose in the distance, and a pig flat, not a common car type on the D&H. |

The gangs all here |
| Description: |
There is quite the crowd at the East Binghamton fuel pad today. NYSW and/D&H units bracket a new arrival, a GP39-2 rebuilt at M-K Mountaintop. This was a program undertaken by NYSW to update several units and repaint them into the D&H lighning |tripe scheme. Two other 39s were done, 7403 and 7407, as well as several GP38-2s. The power at left will go out shortly on PYRP. |

Crossing over |
| Description: |
PYRP has made it out the north end of the yard, and is now about to cross over the Tier at BD, starting its trip through!Bevier St, and on up to Belden tunnel. The track on the diagonal from where the train is, on the ex DLW, to the Southern Tier Line, is the connecting track used by most trains going west on the Tier, though they can also come in and out by staying on the track PYRP is on now through the DLW station area. |
