Mills job
Title:  Mills job
Description:  Now known as D 22, the Mills Job handled interchange of mostly gas cars with the Owego & Harford. It was a holdover from early CR days to allow what was then the Tioga Central a connection to the rest of the rail world other than Conrail. When CP gave up its trackage rights on the Tier, NS took over the interchange. Today we have an STLH unit on the run, though usually this job got a pair of engines, sometimes both were D&H lightning stripe GP 38's. There were not many units so painted, but the Binghamton area had a bunch, so this was not an uncommon sight.

419
Title:  419
Description:  On the days 166 didnt run, CP had a train pair that ran Buffalo-Binghamton with carload freight. It had several symbols over the years, but the westbound was always 39T on NS. Here we see it from the new bridge over the Susquehanna at Campville.

167, or is it F1G??
Title:  167, or is it F1G??
Description:  After NS took over running what had been trains 166 and 167, there were some symbol changes, though it took a while for them to become permanent. In the meanwhile, they sometimes took on NS alphabet soup symbols. They called this on F1G, seen here coming around the curve past the old Erie station.
