Meet at BD
Title:  Meet at BD
Description:  Eastbound 270 behind SOO power is about to meet the NYSW Sea Land train that is about to change crews and head for Buffalo. The 270 will head into East Binghamton across the river, get switched, and then roll north to Mohawk. This photos shows part of the layout at BD. The tracks to the left are the former DLW main, with the line going across to the Court St overpass and under SLN5 is the former DLW Syracuse and Utica line, now used by CP to get to the D&H. Conrail ownership of what had been tracks 3(farthest) and 4(closest to the camera) started here. They were, respectivelt, the 2 and 1 running tracks on the CP, leading over the Susquehanna River to their East Binghamton yard, a former DLW facility.
