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.

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.
