Add on
Title:  Add on
Description:  RF&P had a cab signalling system that was not compatible with anything else, and off line power was not equipped with it, even major connection SCL. This is why you never see foreign power leading there. Train 171 is south at AF with an RF&P leader, added at Potomac Yard just to the north. Looks like the railroad was anticipating a quick turn on the power-RF&P got pretty good utilization, and it was not unusual to see the same power twice in a day-since they added a unit on the rear of the consist as well. The extra power will surely not be needed to roll the train's 96 cars over the RF&P's profile. Of note, three years from the CSX merger, the renumbering has taken hold in earnest. All three CSX units have been renumbered into the 6000's, with the 6531 already repainted.

Good ride
Title:  Good ride
Description:  THe D&H and B&M had run through power from Mechanicville to Oneonta, though sometimes the power would get to Binghamton or even farther, given the condition of D&H diesels. Most of the time, ht was battered GP 9s, with GP 38s showing up from time to time. Today, this crew got lucky, drawing a set of spanking new B&M GP 40-2s, the last new power the B&M would get as an independent road. This train was a tough chase, especially on two lane NY 7-this was before I 88 was built-and this was the only shot I got of him.

Title:  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.

A ghost from the past
Title:  A ghost from the past
Description:  A D&H Belden Hill detour train pulls up the connector from the D&H Penn Division to Conrails Southern Tier Line at Jefferson Jct behind a mix of power that looks deceptively like a vision from the past. The reality is that the patch paint over the former road name has worn off, allowing the prior owners name to bleed through. Nobody was complaining!!
