Took a dump truck
Title:  Took a dump truck
Description:  NYSW 4006 was leading an excursion during the recent NRHS convention in Jersey when it hit a dump truck at a crossing on the ex L&HR. It made for a memorable trip, though for the wrong reasons. They moved the unit to Binghamton, and eventually back to GE for repairs. Here it is sitting outside the Binghamton shop.

Fields of gold
Title:  Fields of gold
Description:  The time between when the corn went brown til the first snow could have some wonderful light, especially late in the day, when it made all the corn and grasses take on this golden hue. MEBU rolls west between Chemung and Wellsburg past one of those cornfields. Scenes like this made it a joy to chase in the Southern Tier, despite the lack of density compared to the Chicago Line or the ex PRR.

West on track 3
Title:  West on track 3
Description:  Sometimes if there was a conflicting move on the Erie side, the Hornell dispatcher would run a train in or out of East Binghamton on the DLW side, known here since EL days as track 3. MEBU is getting the DLW side this morning as it heads west. It will go past the Lackawanna station downtown as it heads for West BD and the Erie main there. It's a Saturday morning, and the faithful are on hand to see the action.
