Working that local traffic |
| Description: |
NYSW 2012 works at Binghamton, getting its train together for a trip up the Utica side, which was the busier line in those days. The ex Auto Train car to the left of the diesel served as the NYSW yard office. |

Yard work |
| Description: |
The NYSW seemed to spend a lot of time working the Binghamton yard, despite running what seemed like very few trains-though they did work the Utica side almost daily then. Here one of the home road units gets some help from a D&H unit as it works at QD. |

Lost scene |
| Description: |
A scene that would become a memory in another 20 years, BH 1 works at Greene. Floods in 2006 would cause numerous washouts, putting the line south of Norwich out of service. Note the D&H covered hopper at far right. |

Starting up the branch |
| Description: |
BH 1 starts a trip on the Utica Branch, passing the Agway mill on the ex DLW line. DLW had a yard here years ago, YO, which was by this time a weed covered field. The cars at left are grain loads for Agway, a Conrail customer. Grain in boxcars was still a common sight here, including a few Erie cars still in service. |

Yellow in the snow |
| Description: |
Any NYSW power could show on the trains they ran for the D&H, though it tended to be the 6 axle power for road trains as a rule. Today we see GP38-2 2012 leading MEBU into East Binghamton on a day that anyone with sense would have stayed home. |

Rubbermaid |
| Description: |
For many years, Rubbermaid had a plant in Cortland. They received plastic pellets via rail, though most if not all of their outbound traffic went by truck. BH 1 is working a cut of covered hoppers into the plant on a cold day in December. Despite the gloomy weather, the engine looks festive. That's the ex DLW passenger station at right. |

Heritage building |
| Description: |
Almost 30 years after this photo, several railroads have created heritage fleets, honoring their predecessors. This building serves in much the same way, though more through benign neglect that by design. BH 1 works past the old DLW freight station in Cortland as it does some local switching. |

Binghamton yard |
| Description: |
This view from Chenango St shows the layout of the yards in downtown Binghamton. At one time, this was all Erie, then EL. After CR sold the Syracuse and Utica lines to NYSW, they got the north side of the yard, at left where 2012 is working a cut of hoppers. Conrail uses the part closer to the ex EL main, at right. You can see the CR power for WABH 11 in their yard. The former D&H station, unoccupied at this time, will in another 16 years become the NYSW base of operations here. The Buffalo Runner runs alongside it. |

HAN 2 in for a crew change |
| Description: |
HAN 2 is pulled up on the Buffalo Runner waiting for a new crew. Conrail would not let NYSW change crews on the main most of the time, so they had to either pull up the runner at QD for eastbounds, or back the train into the CP yard for westbounds. Todays train has an SD 45 and GP 38 for power, so there may be some diesel shuffling going on as well. |

NY 7 with a local unit |
| Description: |
NYSW 2012 leads this NY 7 into Binghamton. While NYSW was not above using small power on road trains, the long hood first orientation of 2012 makes me think the stack outlawed before it got to Binghamton, and 2012 was sent out to retrieve the train. You never knew what to expect from the Susie Q. The 2012 leads a trio of SD 45s as a set of CP power sits on the 2 runner on the ex DLW in the distance. |

DLW station |
| Description: |
The DLW station at Norwich was a substantial building, like many of the Lackawanna facilities. It was a privately owned building by then, used as offices. The U&MV trip rolls past as a couple of local folks take in the action. |

Rolling out of Union Station |
| Description: |
Most people dont think of Utica as being a "union station" since in their experience it handles only Amtrak. For a period in the 1980s and 90s, it truly fit that description, handling not only Amtrak, but also trains to the 1980 Olympics, and the occasional NYSW excursion. The station is to the far right, out of the photo behind the white building. The ex NYC is to the left of the train; you can see the ex NYC tower just beyond the lead unit. I wonder if anyone took advantage of the connection for this trip. |

Classic building |
| Description: |
A sad testimony to the decline of upstate NY is the number of once busy industrial buildings that have fallen on hard times, or simply just fallen down. The ones that are in good shape make great photo props, though. The U&MV trip passes the Waterville Knitting Mills, a business that long ago went south-literally-with the work most likely now done in China or Mexico. |

Returning to Utica |
| Description: |
This foliage train has reached its southernmost point at Chenango Bridge, and is now headed back to Utica, this time with a C 430 leading, and doing what Alcos do like no other diesel. |
