Old classics |
Description: |
At the time, the SD 50 was not one of them, the leader of an OIBU posed in front of the real classics. Beyond the engine, we see the tower of the DLW station, now privately owned and in good shape. To the left of the station is one of the Marconi transmission towers, dating to 1913 when wireless radio was still experimental. The SD 50 was common then. Now, in 2018, there are not many still running in America. |

Despite not being nearly the busy place it was during EL years, there were times in the late 80s and early 90s when there could be quite a bit of action. Today we have some of it as a BUAB with NYSW and D&H power holds track 2, waiting to crossover and take the Buffalo Runner at QD, while a ballast train heads for tie up on the DLW main. |

Hiding out in Hillburn |
Description: |
BUOI is working the Hillburn yard, just west of Suffern on the former Erie, just 31 miles from Jersey City. The third unit, 6640 shares a number with an ex BN F45 on the NYSW. I saw both within a couple of weeks of each other. Never caught them at the same time, though. |

More familiar power |
Description: |
I had just seen a train with CNW power. Always a good thing, but Texans are more familiar with these units, though the CR SD 60 may be a little foreign to them. The trailing unit is one of the ex MP units UP removed the controls from and desgnated as a trailing only unit. Note the "B" in the numberboard to indicate such. |
