Starting up the branch
Title:  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.

Over the Chenango
Title:  Over the Chenango
Description:  BH 1 crosses the Chenango River in late afternoon lighting. This train always seemed to get out late in the day, and could be hard to shoot here, since the orientation of the bridge made mid afternoon light a problem.

Colorful light
Title:  Colorful light
Description:  Just about the end of useful light, but the sun is still high enough to highlight the trees, which are peaking as the train passes through Greene.

Description:  Gonna listen to my 45s...in the words of Billy Joel. Binghamton was a good place to do it. Four of them sit outside the shop.
