Description: |
D 22 was the old SU 2. It worked west to Owego two days per week to service the Owego & Harford, and the other days ran Binghamton to Oneonta, as well as doing any local work in the Binghamton area. It almost always got 4 axle power, often one of the D&H units. Here it enters Binghamton yard behind a "golden rodent" and a lightning stripe GP38-2. |

Go fetch |
Description: |
If the yard was clogged and the yardmaster didnt have room for an inbound train, hed have the power cut off at the north end crossovers, leaving the train on the runner between there and BD. A yard job would go get the train later, when there was room to work it. Such is the case here, as a couple of rebuilt geeps have coupled on to a train left north of the crossovers and are now pulling it into the yard. That's Conklin Av(NY 7) overhead. |

One of the usual features of the mornings activity at East Binghamton was the arrival of 41T, which came through the yard and onto NS Southern Tier Line, typically late morning/mid day. This mornings effort is led by a full body SD 50. Older power was not unusual, and we saw a fairly steady stream of wide cab SD 40s and cowl units. |
