Bicentennial on July 4
Title:  Bicentennial on July 4
Description:  It's a few years after the Bicentennial, but D&H 506, by now renumbered back from the 1976 it carried during the celebration, still is in its patriotic colors.

Happy Fourth!!
Title:  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.

Title:  Still Alco

Shop line

New unit
Title:  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
Title:  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.
