Bicentennial unit |
| Description: |
Looking a little worse for wear, the D&H RS3m that was painted red white and blue still holds its colors five years after the celebration. Like the previous year when I saw it at Oneonta, iit's July 4th. |

Happy Fourth!! |
| Description: |
For the third time in ten years, I caught a D&H Bicentennial unit. The prior times were in Oneonta in 1981, and Mechanicville in 1981. Today it's outside the shop in Binghamton. In a year, it will be on the Tiogal Central. This unit was one of eight(501-508) RS 3s rebuilt by MK in the late 70s. The others were gone by this time. |

Still Alco |
| Description: |
Despite having acquired a fleet of GEs, and later a number of EMDs, the D&H could still put together an impressive Alco consist, such as this one at East Binghamton. |

New unit |
| Description: |
New to the NYSW. This NRL lease unit has recently arrived, and is at East Binghamton in an attractive gray and red scheme reminiscent of the EL U34s. As a bonus, we have the D&H Bicentennial unit, still in red/white/blue 13 years later. |

Bicentennial |
| Description: |
From a long time ago. The D&H had some RS 3s rebuilt in the early 70s, repainted 506 for the Bicentennial, and true to D&H form, never got around to painting it back into the lightning stripe the other 7 units were in. This one went to Tioga Central, where it still has this paint job, as far as I know. In 1989, it was at Owego, with a freshly painted coach and S 2. The S 2 is notable also, having been the Buffalo Creek Bicentennial unit, their 46-see comment below. |
