Alco-powered Work Train at Rye, N.Y., 1971 |
Description: |
Alco's S2 -- a 1,000 horsepower B-B switcher built between 1940 and 1950 -- was a successful follow-up to Alco's 600 hp S1. Penn Central owned a lot of them because each of its constituent railroads, the New York Central, Pennsylvania, and New Haven, were good S2 customers. In 1971, S2 #9606 -- a former NYC unit -- pulls a heavy-duty crane towards New Haven on the 4-track mainline at Rye, New York. Ektachrome by Stephen C. Baldwin. |

PC 9608 looking south from Jay Street - 2 of 3 |
Description: |
OK, so where was that lead? It's all gone today - only the 490 bridge remains. The lead may be gone, but the Charlotte Runner is still there: As a point of reference, I mated up my photo with a screen grab of a Charlie Ricker image (off railroad.net) of obviously newer vintage to indicate the relationship. The two photos share the same concrete bridge support under the 490 overpass. More from DRBrown: ".. right in that area were several sizable customers in NYC days. South of Maple Ave, west of the track, was Tobin Packing which used to get cars of hogs. South of what is now I-490, the Water Tower Industrial Building used to be Yawman and Erbe. And between 490 and Maple, east of the track, was Castle-Hanson, which was a manufacturer of glass bottles and jars - they received cars of silica, limestone and whatever else goes into making glass. And south of Maple, east of the track was Flanigan Furniture, who received by rail back then. And there were many more - rail customers were right next door to each other right on down the line, one after another. Each afternoon, the parade of locals would come dragging into Goodman Street from the west side - the Kent Street KS2, YT-1 from over by the B&O/PRR, KS4 from the Subway when it was NYC's turn to operate that. Cars from Otis. Anywhere from 20 to 40, sometimes more, cars on each." (Edited) [photo date approximate] |

PC 9608 looking south from Jay Street - 1 of 3 |
Description: |
My photo, with DRBrown description: "Castle-Hanson was not served off the main, it was served off a long lead which started off the Charlotte Branch well north of Jay Street. At the time the DICCS maps were drawn in 1964, this lead had an inside switch still north of Jay Street, which led to the east and served Rosenbaum Brothers and Mundet Cork, both north of Jay Street, and the crossed the road to serve Dolomite Glass Fibers. Going back to that lead, it crossed Jay St., went south and had a switch to Castle-Hanson which is where the 9608 is in the photo. That lead then crossed Maple St and dead ended at Ritter Co., which was later Flanagan Furniture. Castle-Hanson had 3 tracks, actually 4 since they also worked off that long lead." (Edited) [photo date approximate] More: Apparently Castle-Hanson was the former Reed Glass Company. The Castle-Hanson plant at Rochester was eventually purchased by (or became part of) Leone Industries, based in Bridgeton, New Jersey. |

NYC 9637 (print scan) - for a while, Kodak labeled prints with dates |
Description: |
In this November 1967 photo, the crew is headed east with three cars after switching Pfaudler, sporting a fancy S-2 with Jerry Blunt trucks and a nice paint job. Location is on West Ave. right in front of the GRS main entrance. Per DRBrown, "that yard job with the 9637 would be YT-1. They were on duty roughly 0700, train was usually made up on track 04. They took cars for the B&O, the PRR, and firms such as GRS and Pfaudler. Conductor was Lloyd Swartz, one brakeman was O.R. Brown, and I'll be darned if I can place a name to the guy in the photo. Caboose assigned to the job at that time was 18897, a rather odd-looking series which NYC acquired with the T&OC. Unlike most jobs, YT-1 left Goodman Street with the caboose on the head pin." |
