Good looking power
Title:  Good looking power
Description:  Once the NYSW decided to paint their power, they put together some good looking consists. This SLN 5 has just pulled up to QD, and now that the rear of the train has cleared BD, it will back its 50 platforms and 4 freight into the D&H yard to change power and crews and roll for Buffalo. The power, an SD 45/F 45/SD 45 set, looks good in yellowjacket paint.

Just in
Title:  Just in
Description:  The power from an SLN 5 that came into town in the morning is now at the shop awaiting attention before it goes back to Jersey on the next eastbound. NYSW ran anything that would pull cars on those trains, as can be seen by the lineup here.

Coming over
Title:  Coming over
Description:  Power from inbound trains would often be pulled off BUME and serviced, or swapped out at Binghamton, and new power brought over from the yard. The train itself would be left on the Buffalo Runner. A set of NYSW power is rolling through BD as it makes its way to the train at Bevier St.

Took a dump truck
Title:  Took a dump truck
Description:  NYSW 4006 was leading an excursion during the recent NRHS convention in Jersey when it hit a dump truck at a crossing on the ex L&HR. It made for a memorable trip, though for the wrong reasons. They moved the unit to Binghamton, and eventually back to GE for repairs. Here it is sitting outside the Binghamton shop.

Rolling in
Title:  Rolling in
Description:  MEBU has come through Bevier St yard and is cleared through BD as it makes its way into East Binghamton. Sometimes these trains would take the Buffalo Runner and be recrewed downtown, sometimes theyd head into the yard. You just had to watch what they did.

Showing the flag
Title:  Showing the flag
Description:  NYSW tried whenever possible to run its own power in the lead. Sometimes that meant one of the F 45s, which was always a treat. Todays MEBU has 3636 leading at BX, about to cross CR at BD. The signal governed the long out of service crossing of the EL and D&H here on a diamond. Now it's a pair of crossovers.

Description:  MEBU is on the left, with 3 of 4 units from the 45 line, as a set of pushers waits on the right for a northbound going up the hill. As a bonus, we have both NYSW F 45's. It was a good time to be watching the 20 cylinder beasts. Action at the south end of Bevier St.

Holiday
Title:  Holiday
Description:  In recent years, some railroads have pretty much shut down, with only essential operations running. Apparently, Sea Land stacks were not essential, as this SLN 3 is backed onto the Utica Branch, waiting for a D&H crew that will come on later this evening for the run to Buffalo.

F 45 roster
Title:  F 45 roster
Description:  East Binghamton under NYSW was largely an open house. As long as you didnt do anything stupid, and stayed out of the way, you were unofficially welcome to come down and shoot all the photos you wanted. I made the most of this sunny day in December 1988, getting this roster shot of a set of 45s, led by one of the Fs.

Title:  Good looking leader
Description:  The brightness of the yellow on NYSW 3636 will help its visibility on this (typical)gloomy day as it rolls BUME east at Waverly.

Between the blades
Title:  Between the blades
Description:  SLN 5 rolls through the twin semaphores at Tioga Center. This was a popular spot, one of two on the line-the other was just west of Arkport, and not as easy to reach-due to its ease of access and good photo potential.

DLW side
Title:  DLW side
Description:  MEBU, looking like NYSW has a pool with BN, rolls west on track 3, the former DLW westbound main, passing the DLW station on the right, and the Erie freight house on the left. The station is still standing, serving multiple purposes for new owners. The freight house was torn down several years later, and replaced with a small building used by local crews. Track 3 was sometimes used if there was traffic on the Erie main between BD and West BD. Also in this view, we see the station power plant, the low brick building with the concrete stack; and the Marconi tower, an early effort at radio communications. The Lackawanna got into radio early, due to the weather related issues with lineside wires that came with the heavy winters in the region.

Down on the farm
Title:  Down on the farm
Description:  One of the most scenic places on the NYSW, indeed in New York, was Bairds farm near Warwick. It was a popular photo spot, and the family was gracious in allowing railfans access. It was a "must do" photo stop for the trip, which we see posed at the farm, along with some of JJ Youngs inflatable cows, imported from Binghamton for the occasion.

Description:  There were not many really bright sunny days in the Tier. This was one of them, and the late day winter sun really lights up this set of yellowjackets on MEBU as it passes the station at Chemung.

Lease power galore
Title:  Lease power galore
Description:  And a few NYSW units, including both F45s. There are a few other odds and ends in this shot taken from the trailer park next to the yard, including EMD test bed PLM 3041, and RS 36 5009, both partly visible. I was not able to get the numbers, but there is also a D&H GP 38 and a C424 back in the line.
