NS 206
Title:  NS 206
Description:  Even though you can't see it in this photo, the crew has brought a short string of cars here to CP's Conklin yard. From here they'll go back "light-power" to the rest of their train that is occupying one of the main tracks of the Southern-tier a few miles west of here. They will then hook back up to that train and procede north on the D&H as the 938.

 Yard/main Binghamton
Title:  Yard/main Binghamton
Description:  Left to right.....NS #2671 tied down. Susquehanna's "dead fleet" with blue lease units beyond them. Westbound mixed freight led by NS #6663. Light power (NS 8980 & 9404) to the immediate right of the mixed freight moving towards us to hook-up to a train that I think they brought in from Buffalo. NS 8980 & 9404 are returning from Conklin yard where they dropped a short string of loaded intermodal cars. After hooking back up to the balance of the train they left on the main, they'll then head north-west on the old D&H!

NS power heading up the D&H
Title:  NS power heading up the D&H
Description:  It's fun to watch all the maneuvering that goes on in this town! I don't know how well the railroads like it, but anyway; from what we could tell, these two engines came into town from Buffalo as NS 206........cut a short string of loaded intermodal cars off the front of the train, ran them over to Conklin yard, came back and hooked-up to what was left, and then headed up the D&H as CP train 938!

Train 935
Title:  Train 935
Description:  The Pennsy leads Norfolk Southern train 23K down the D&H. Since the D&H is owned by Canadian Pacific this train is technically a foreign movement at this point; hence CP symbol 935. It's now 12:56 and the crew will bring her up to the station where the New York, Susquehanna & Western offices are and tie it down.

Catfish?
Title:  Catfish?
Description:  We showed-up in Delanson at around 14:30 to find that this NS train had just set-out a string of autoracks for the SMS to pick-up! NS was out of here within 10 minutes and then we talked about the likelihood of seeing the SMS make the pick-up. I was skeptical. We hung around for about 45 minutes and were seriously thinking of leaving when...............
