Moving the power around |
| Description: |
The D&H hostler is moving the power for SC 3, which will depart shortly once the engines are tied together. It will be quite a consisit. These units will go out in reverse order, with former bicentennial 200 leading seven units. |

B&M power north |
| Description: |
B&M power was not uncommon on the D&H, and only became more prevalent after Guilford acquired the road, along with those of Maine Central. Here are a pair of B&M GP38-2s, former Bicentennial 200 leading, with a like pair of ex LV units from the D&H northbound at Bainbridge. Note the D&H "I Love NY" boxcar back in the train. |

Must be a jet |
| Description: |
My notes dont show what train this is, but it was parked at Bevier St. At the time, JET 1 was the only train that did not yard at East Binghamton, so Im guessing this is JET 1 waiting on a crew. In a nice touch, the leader is one of the B&Ms last order of new power, GP40-2 303. |

Thats a lot of power |
| Description: |
A side view of the train seen at a more head on angle elsewhere. I believe this is JET 1, which was typically overpowered, probably in hopes there would be enough units still running at the end of the trip to get it into the terminal. |

This one was a Buffalo-Portland job that has completed its work and now has its 107 cars headed north behind an ex Illinois Terminal SD 39. It has taken the switch to the DLW track that will cross Conrails Soutehrn Tier on the Court St overpass, and will head toward the tunnel. |

The opposite side view of JET 1 shows the train stretched out on the Buffalo Runner, with a mix of power that this train seemed to get pretty routinely, including a B&M GP 9 that these trains seemed to get pretty routinely. Only four units today-either it was a light train, or Guilford was getting more confident. |

Hold em back |
| Description: |
This D&H unit was trailing RPPY at Crocker Hill Rd in Port Crane, presumably for dynamic braking, but it may also just be a pusher being returned to Binghamton. Sometimes a northbound would drop a helper at Afton if there was a southbound coming fairly soon, with that train taking it back down the hill. |

New and rebuilt |
| Description: |
A front end roster view of newly rebuilt at M-K 7407, one of eight units rebuilt and repainted into the lightning stripe scheme. This unit, along with the other 39s, would go to CSX once CP took over the D&H-I saw one in Ohio on the ex B&O about six years later-but the 38s would last a long while into the CP era. As I write this in 2016, there is still at least one in this scheme. |

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. |

Looking down the valley |
| Description: |
We look down the Canisteo valley from our vantage point on the CR 119 overpass at Carson, MP 325. This was a superb view of a westbound in the afternoon, especially in the low sun days of winter. |
