Description: |
This RS 3 was set out at Susquehanna with a flat wheel. It must have been dragged quite a distance, judging by the flat spot several inches long on the rear truck. |

Before and after |
Description: |
The two F45s that NYSW acquired from BN are in Binghamton this day. BN 6640 woud become NYSW 3638. NYSW 6370, which had been BN 6644, is in the yellowjacket scheme, one it looks quite good in. A little over a year from now, NYSW would take over operation of the D&H while it was in bankruptcy, and these two units would be joined by a couple of old colleagues via NRL-BN 6635 and BN 6642. It was a good time to be a 45 watcher. |

Patch job |
Description: |
The only giveaways in this set of power sitting at the Binghamton engine house are the patch paint on 6509, and the yellowjacket scheme on 6370. Otherwise it could be Idaho. We see both F45s in this photo. I only saw them once working back to back in freight service. BN 6640, to become NYSW 3638, turned into something of a hangar queen, and was beset by a variety of ills that kept it off the road a lot of the time. The trailing unit, 6370, became 3636, and was a steady presence on NYSW trains into the 21st century. |

Work extra |
Description: |
The GP 18s turned up everywhere, so it was no surprise to find one on a work train on the Hackensack River bridge. Note the FJ&G flat right behind the power. The river was still an artery of commerce-note the barge at far right. Stone was a common item transported by barge in the New York area. |

Odd fellows |
Description: |
NYSW acquired this ex NYO&W switcher and restored it to its original paint job. Here it is at Binghamton in the company of a BN F45, an unlikely a combination of power as youll ever see. Note the D&H hopper at rear in the yard. |

Title: |
Parked for now |
Description: |
Before Conrail allowed the NYSW and D&H to change crews on its main, the stack trains had to back off Conrail, who said they didnt want the trains tying up their railroad. This was understandable, since the crew change could take anywhere from ten minutes to ten hours, depending on if there was a crew ready. This SLN 3 is backed onto the ex DLW Utica Branch while waiting for a D&H crew. Meanwhile, out of sight on the D&H, a southbound is slowly making its way to BD and the yard across the river. |

On the bridge |
Description: |
Shots of the north side of the Chenango River bridge are not often seen, since the sun lights that side only late in the day for a few months in the summer. I was there on one of those occasions, catching SLN 3 as it backed its 50 Sea Land platforms and 23 freight off the Tier at QD. |

Backing down |
Description: |
SLN 3 backs off the Tier at QD as a local fan catches the action. The Erie station stood where the empty space is between the Southern Tier and the ex DLW, whose station is now privately owned, and can be seen to the right of the train, under the Chenango St bridge. |
