Rolling in the sun |
| Description: |
For a late afternoon northbound, there were not too many decently lit shots going north. One that worked was this view at Afton, where there was enough angle to shoot from the shoulder of NY 7. We see a PLMT rolling toward the signal at GR behind a mix of power. |

Approaching the signal |
| Description: |
The signal gantry at GR is well known, and easy to get a shot of, due to being so close to the road. PLMT rolls up to it as the afternoon rolls on into evening. |

Rolling the coal |
| Description: |
Slowly at first. This PLMT has quite a power set, and pushers too. It is getting started from Bevier St for a slow trip up to the tunnel. |

Hold em back |
| Description: |
This D&H unit was trailing RPPY at Crocker Hill Rd in Port Crane, presumably for dynamic braking, but it may also just be a pusher being returned to Binghamton. Sometimes a northbound would drop a helper at Afton if there was a southbound coming fairly soon, with that train taking it back down the hill. |

Pulling down |
| Description: |
RPPY arrives at East Binghamton behind a pair of NYSW units bracketing a D&H GP 38. It will cut the power off and leave the train to be worked. |

New and rebuilt |
| Description: |
A front end roster view of newly rebuilt at M-K 7407, one of eight units rebuilt and repainted into the lightning stripe scheme. This unit, along with the other 39s, would go to CSX once CP took over the D&H-I saw one in Ohio on the ex B&O about six years later-but the 38s would last a long while into the CP era. As I write this in 2016, there is still at least one in this scheme. |

Home road pride |
| Description: |
D&H rebuild 7312 leads this 72 car BUME at west Endicott, the first of four D&H units on the train. The 7312 was notable for being named in honor of legendary D&H engineer Bernie O'Brien. |
