Making the grade |
Description: |
A pair of NYSW units sandwich a "plum" as we often called the blue PLM lease units, as it is about the finish the steady climb ot Gulf Summit. This is SLN 5, today with 115 stack platforms and a lone conventional freight car. Once over the top, its 35 miles and a ride across Starrucca to get to Binghamton, where a CP crew will take over for the trip to Buffalo. Note the trailing unit, NYSW 4040. This is one of the CSX financed units that served on the NYSW during the directed service of the D&H. It will soon be returning to CSX. |

Long distance pushers |
Description: |
Most trains were not heavy enough to get pushers out of Scranton, and practice was to put the tonnage on and drag it up to Clarks Summit with the road power. Still, some trains got helpers, such as this 555. They would stay on all the way to Binghamton. |

Typical mix |
Description: |
The NYSW had a wide variety of hand me down power over the years, and they were not shy about mixing it up. Most of the time, they put the yellowjackets in the lead, but anything could show up. BH 1 crosses the Chenango River on its way to Syracuse with a pair of yellowjackets, a six and a four motor unit, leading an ex NW SD, still in black dip. |
