Pushing hard
Title:  Pushing hard

Stone bridge
Title:  Stone bridge
Description:  PYRPs pushers cross NY 7 on the stone arch bridge. Seen from a side road off NY 7, this shows the scenic beauty of this part of the D&H. As I write this in 2015, this shot is pretty well treed in.

Reading still with us
Title:  Reading still with us
Description:  The pushers on this PYRP have made the tunnel, with the trailing unit showing that the Reading may be gone, but not forgotten. This is one of the GP 39-2s conveyed at Conrail startup, still in its original colors.

Pushing it in
Title:  Pushing it in
Description:  PYRPs helpers push the train right into the tunnel before cutting off. The signal guards the tunnel entrance, which has a door on it to keep out the elements during bad weather. It helps prevent icing in the tunnel.

Still at it
Title:  Still at it
Description:  D&H 5017 shows its resilience, working in pusher service on PYRP at the north end of Dyes Siding at the Moottown Road crossing. The RS 36 would outlast the siding, which would be removed in a couple of years, ending its days in yard service under CP.

Classics
Title:  Classics
Description:  There are several features in this shot that are now classics. The "Susquehanna Division" sign, now long gone, recalls the EL, as does the signal, a reminder of the time when this was DLWs main track past the yard, not a running track as it is now. Of course, the RS 36 switching in the D&H lightning stripe scheme is one of the best paint jobs in America-on an Alco.

Yard job with an unusual switch
Title:  Yard job with an unusual switch
Description:  The NY State Operation Lifesaver car was at Binghaston being switched by an RS 36. Dont recall what the event was, probably training for presenters. The car was a classroom on wheels and toured all over the state. Note the old DLW roundhouse and turntable to tie left of the car. When CP took over, they would remove the table and fill the pit, then build a new turntable.

Locals too.
Title:  Locals too.
Description:  Once in a while one of the remaining RS 36's would get out of the yard, where they spent most of their time by this point. Today 5017 was the lucky one to get out on the road with a local, and is now returning to East Binghamton.

Title:  Headed across town
Description:  D&H 5017, which would hold onto the yard job til after CP took over the D&H, heads through BD to Bevier St to retrieve a cut of cars to be switched at East Binghamton. A Chessie unit is in the distance, probably the inbound PYRP's leader being turned after the 5017 clears the plant.

Working the siding
Title:  Working the siding
Description:  NYSW would use the siding just south of Chenango Forks as a relay point for cars going up the Syracuse Branch, and sometimes for car storage. They often had a string of stored hoppers there. D&H 5017 has the honor of working BH 1 today, which is moving cars in and out of the siding. It has pulled up to the switch for the Syracuse Branch, which is in the foreground. Hes on the Utica Branch, which saw service almost daily at that time.

Title:  Working in town

Local with a mix
Title:  Local with a mix
Description:  SU 2 was the local that worked the Binghamton area and north to Oneonta. Typical power was a pair of units. In CP days, this would be handled by a mix of GP9 rebuilds and GP 38s, with an occasional ex Guilford GP 40 thrown in. During the NYSW era, anything they had could show up, as in this case, a GP 39 and RS 36 holding down the job at Bevier St
