East with a little help
Title:  East with a little help
Description:  A pair of NYSW units have this NY 10 rolling past the shop, along with a pair of CSX units to get the train over the road. This was typical at the time, and some really interesting power mixes could be seen most days. The light was getting pretty bad-the legendary Binghamton gloom was yielding to night-but I'd alway take the shot.
