Coming along |
Description: |
BH 1 rolls out of the NYSW yard and past the Agway mill as it heads into Bevier St and ultimately to the Syracuse Branch. Today a pair of western visitors are in the lead, a really unusual treat. |

To the Syracuse side |
Description: |
BH 1 takes the switch for the Syracuse Branch at Forks. Its 77 cars will cause some consternation for the motorists on NY 12 as it slowly clears the interlocking. I'm standing about where the south end of the old DLW station stood until 1976. |

Detour train with western power |
Description: |
CSX detour train SU 404 approaches the Kattelville Road crossing in Chenango Bridge with a pair of BNSF units leading the usual motley assortment of NYSW power that typified that period, though it is that rarest of power consists these days, having three builders' diesels. Just a hint of fall color is still in the trees this late in October |

F45 still rolling |
Description: |
NYSW 3636 seemed to have 9 lives. Unlike sister 3638, which was a hangar queen and retired early, 3636 lasted almost til the end of the 45 line era on the NYSW. Here we see it down along Court St near the power house for the Binghamton State Hospital, waiting on the BH 1 crew to take it east. |

Tell us how you really feel |
Description: |
The six axle ex Cartier units were something less than stunning performers, and the T&E people were not always that fond of them. Someone has expressed his thoughts in the dust on this one, seen outside the Binghamton engine house. Thats one of the ex TP&W GP 20s in the background. |

Sadness or euphoria |
Description: |
NYSW had some interesting power through the years, though sometimes it was not all that attractive. When it was painted in yellowjacket, it looked sharp. There were also periods where it looked pretty sad, patch painted and mismatched. Today its sadness and not euphoria, as an ex SP tunnel motor in a multicolor patch paint job leads a pair of ex Cartier big Alcos, still mostly in their old scheme. Theres also a glimpse of F 45 3636, in yellowjacket, and definitely in a state of euphoria, as its running. This is SU 99 arriving from Jersey. The tunnel motor would soon get the yellow and black the NYSW is famous for; the Alcos would get sold to WNY&P before they ever got close to a paint booth, and 3636 would eventually become a hangar queen and go to scrap. |

Motley power |
Description: |
An SU 99 pulls up to QD with a mixed bag of power, mostly in ragged paint. The trailing unit is in yellowjacket, and the leader eventually got that scheme. The two Alcos were gone before they got painted, which is a shame, though second unit 3672 did get "NYSW" on the rear above the radiator. Seeing the yellow jacket scheme on big Alcos would have been a treat. |
