Train 270 rolls north into the siding at Delanson, with one of the classic D&H signal gantries in the background. These were already starting to be replaced, albeit at a slow pace, by this time. |

No more siding |
| Description: |
Northbound 270 rolls past the remains of the siding at East Worcester, part of CPs plan to slim down the physical plant. When they were done, the only sidings between Binghamton and Schenectady would be at Afton, Oneonta, Richmondville, Cobleskill and Delanson. |

Oneonta yard |

CP 270 passes the north end of Oneonta yard, now used mostly for car storage, though I think they had some car shop work still being done there at the time. |

271 with a common mix |
| Description: |
It was not unusual to see Guilford power coming into Binghamton on 271, the former MEBU. It would yard there, and the Guilford power would go back on 270 most of the time. |
