Train 309 rolls past the stubble corn of a farm near Waverly. The barn and silo still have a few more years left before they succumb to the elements and crash into a heap. |

Rare leaser |
Description: |
Train 554 arrives at Binghamton with a CS unit and a PLM lease unit. This was unusual, as this train almost always got solid CP power, and frequently, Alcos. |

556 rolling on down |
Description: |
Train 556 rolls across Phelps St in Port Dickinson, almost at its destination of Binghamton. There the train will get switched, and a newly worked over 556 will most likely get NS power and head south. |

Old power rules |
Description: |
One of the remaining D&H RS 36s rolls a 556 south across the diamond at BD as it heads into East Binghamton. The RS 36s did not see the road often at this point, and it would have been a very unlikely leader, though CP was not shy about running Alcos in regular service. My guess is the crew on this train came down with the PLM unit leading, and was on short time. If there was no room at the inn, the East Binghamton yardmaster likely had him tie up at Bevier St and taxied the crew to the yard. Then 5022 was sent over to get the train once there was space. |
