SVRHS display
Title:  SVRHS display
Description:  The Susquehanna Valley NRHS had some equipment on display at the ex DLW station for a number of years. This ex Southern E 8 was the feature, but more local items included several Erie cars and EL caboose 316. The equipment was moved to Elmira when the new baseball stadium was built in 1992 on the site of the former DLW freight house. The station stub tracks, once used for set out sleepers and mail, were removed.

Restoration candidate
Title:  Restoration candidate
Description:  NJT 4334, a former Southern E 8, sits at the Susquehanna Valley RHS display on the set out tracks at the Binghamton DLW station. The original plan was to restore the unit to Erie or EL paint, with the hope of eventually getting it into running condition. As happens all too often, funding and available hands fell short. The engine was eventually moved to Elmira, but not til after the new ballfield was built on the site of the DLW freight house, leaving the equipment on the set out tracks land locked. Panel track had to be laid to get everything out.
