Looking down the river |
| Description: |
BH 3 rolls 35 cars across the Chenango River, in a companion piece to the similar photo in this album, only now we see more of the frozen river it is crossing. There was a time when an effort was made to have a yellowjacket leading, to put forth a good image. Not today, as the patch painted ex SP unit is leading. It will eventually become an SD30ECO, but for now, its still a tired ex SP tunnel motor. |

BH 3 |
| Description: |
BH 3 rolls north past Old State Rd, coming down the connector from the D&H. It was built when the Bevier St overpasses were raised about 1990, and the DLW line bridge was removed. The old right of way is seen going off to the right. |

Typical motley power |
| Description: |
A leased SD 38, one of two on the railroad-the other is the last unit in this consist-a couple of patch painted SP units, and a black ex NS SD lead a 76 car train north past the ex DLW station, partly visible behind the train, at Whitney Point. This is most likely an SU 403, a train run as a detour move for CSX. This was common at the time, as CSX was doing a lot of work on their ex NYC lines from Jersey to Buffalo, so getting a low priority train off their main eased the congestion. |

The 99 arrives |
| Description: |
SU 99 arrives at BD on a sunny February morning with a yellowjacket leading three other units that are, well, not as well dressed. After a decade or more of good looking power, the NYSW has reverted into the mix of hand me down colors that were its hallmark in the 80s. |

Tunnel motors south |
| Description: |
BH 2 rolls 51 cars across the Chenango on its way to Binghamton with a power set that includes three of its four ex SP tunnel motors. The two trailing units were the only tunnel motors in yellowjacket at the time. The NY 12A bridge is in the background. |

Taking the switch |
| Description: |

Open shot |
| Description: |
Train speeds on the Northern Division were modest, 30 MPH in most places, so chasing was not a challenge most of the time. After shooting a train at Forks, you could easily beat him to this spot, where the tracks crossed US 11 south of Whitmey Point. Here you were afforded an open view of the train as it approached the crossing. It will be a good wait for the 110 cars to clear. I wont beat him to Lisle, only three miles up, but Killawog shouldnt be a problem. |

To the Syracuse side |

BH 1 takes the switch for the Syracuse Branch at Forks. Its 77 cars will cause some consternation for the motorists on NY 12 as it slowly clears the interlocking. I'm standing about where the south end of the old DLW station stood until 1976. |

Detour train with western power |
| Description: |
CSX detour train SU 404 approaches the Kattelville Road crossing in Chenango Bridge with a pair of BNSF units leading the usual motley assortment of NYSW power that typified that period, though it is that rarest of power consists these days, having three builders' diesels. Just a hint of fall color is still in the trees this late in October |
