Down for the count
Title:  Down for the count
Description:  This RS 3 was set out at Susquehanna with a flat wheel. It must have been dragged quite a distance, judging by the flat spot several inches long on the rear truck.

RS 2
Title:  RS 2
Description:  A visit to the NYSW in Binghamton in the mid 80s could turn up almost anything. They ran a number of short lines during that time, among others, the Cooperstown & Charlotte Valley, the Fonda, Johnstown & Gloversville, the Central NY-the one that was the ex DLW Richfield Springs branch, not the incarnation created to run the NS former Erie Delaware Division. Their power was painted for any number of these, as we can see here. RS 2 100 is lettered for the Delaware Otsego System, with FJG initials.

Quite the line up
Title:  Quite the line up
Description:  The dead line at Binghamton has an interesting composition, as one would expect from the NYSW. Leading off is RS 1 252, along with the two wrecked C 430s, which will be scrapped soon. Rounding out the group is an RS 2 and RS 3, one in the DO maroon and red scheme.
