Short 558 |
| Description: |
CP initiated scheduled service on several lanes when they took over the D&H. One set of trains was the 557/558 pair, between Toronto and Philly. They made a guaranteed connection with Binghamton-Montreal trains 553/554 at Binghamton. There was considerable effort made to make the connections, and mostly it worked. In the early going, the trains were often small, such as this 558 arriving at Binghaton with three 89 foot flats of COFC. The yard sign makes it plain where everyone's heart is. |

Entering the yard |
| Description: |
Train 558 has come off the Susquehanna River bridge and is now making its way past a train dropped on the oen runner earlier as it heads for the yard and a pick up of cars off 554. It will change crews and quickly be on its way to Philadelphia. The view is from the old Conklin Av overpass at Holmes Crossing. |
