D&H units to Jersey
Title:  D&H units to Jersey
Description:  An NYSW B 40 leads a pair of D&H units on SLN 4 as it heads for Little Ferry. Over the next ten years, this would be a common sight, with CP and SOO power getting into the act after CP took over the D&H a couple of years later.

MEBU in the corn
Title:  MEBU in the corn
Description:  This field in Owego was a favorite vantage point. There was a good, open view of the tracks, and the crops changed periodically, so it was always a new view from season to season, and year to year. Heres MEBU with a pair of GEs bracketing one of NRLs F 45s. How about that Rio Grande auto rack head out??

Turning move
Title:  Turning move
Description:  A set of power has come out of East Binghamton and across CR at BD, and will shortly clear the crossovers at the south end of Bevier St. Then it will go back down to QD, reverse and go through town on the Tier to get back to the yard. Guess they really wanted the NYSW B 40 leading.

Why they turned the power
Title:  Why they turned the power
Description:  Walter Rich put out a directive when the NYSW started running the D&H that NYSW painted units were to lead wherever practicable. This power set is being turned to get the B 40s in the lead. The unit on the other end is a leased GATX GP 38, so its also possible the crew wanted the new unit to run from.

Climbing
Title:  Climbing
Description:  NY 10 approaches Schoolhouse Rd in Cascade Valley with 85 stack platforms behind a trio of B 40s. This was quite a climb for 4 axle power with a heavy train, but in that era it was a common sight, as CR and NYSW both used 4 motor units on stack trains.

Title:  Meet next to a cornfield
Description:  This was not a cornfield meet in the traditional sense-the trains passed without incident, but there was surely a cornfield in the distance as MTPL met BUOI just west of Tioga Center.

Looks like KL 1
Title:  Looks like KL 1
Description:  Six NYSW units lead what looks like a KL 1, but was called MEBU on the radio. There were probably not enough cars to run the trains separately-the car count was 73 on this train-so they were combined, saving a crew start. We see the train near the Tioga County transfer station, about where the LV Auburn Branch ducked under the EL. Two of the original four B40's are on this train.

Yellowjacket six pack
Title:  Yellowjacket six pack

Any other time
Title:  Any other time
Description:  But today. ABBU with the first two SOO units to come to the D&H had just passed westbound, and we were all running to our cars to get on with the chase when we heard the horn. BUME rolls through the semaphores behind a mix of NYSW and CP power. It's a horrible angle for the train, but it does a good job of showing the lenses in the semaphore blades.

309 looks a lot like 556
Title:  309 looks a lot like 556
Description:  Except for the NYSW unit leading. Even a year into the CP operation of the D&H, NYSW power still showed up on a variety of trains that were not the normal stack train run throughs from Jersey to Buffalo. Here we have one of the B 40s leading 309 with three more units and 42 cars, coming through BX into East Binghamton from Mechanicville. There are two notable units in the consist. PLM 3041 is one of the EMD 645 engine test bed units, and trailing is one of the few RS 36's left on the roster, 5023.

Yellowjacket trio
Title:  Yellowjacket trio
Description:  CP and NYSW ran their power through on the stack trains, which ran almost daily. With the relatively high number of these trains and the number of diesels needed to keep them moving, it was more common to see mixed consists than matched. It was therefore something of a surprise to see 255-the SLN 5-with a matched set not only of NYSW power, but three of the four remaining B 40s. Here they are about to roll over the road crossing at Canisteo. Any other day I'd have chased this train; I caught it while following 270 east, which had an M636 in the consist. I saw relatively few 6 motor Alcos on the Tier, so was not going to give that up.

SOO and NYSW power head west
Title:  SOO and NYSW power head west
Description:  One of the great things for a railfan about the transition from directed service by the NYSW to the CP was the unlikely power mixes. Who ever figured a small regional like NYSW would have its power in the same consists with SOO units?? Yet, here it is....
