Tom Beckett General Saturday in Binghamton. Conrail calls this NTV 9; it will become DHT 9 when turned over to the D&H for the run to Buffalo. On the NYSW, this is the Saturday Sea Land train, SLN 5. Nice power set. Once there were a good number of the SD 45's, it was easier to find a solid set of power on these trains, plus the reliablity was a lot better than when they were using a polyglot mix of whatever was handy and ran. Some of the early stacks ran with GP 18's, CF 7's, Alcos, which made for interesting consists, but there were some challenges getting over the road. 10/26/2019 2:02:59 AM
