Mixing it up |
| Description: |
The trains, not the ppwer, though this train has a homebuilt B unit. On slower freight days, some trains would be combined, usually the intermodals with the carload trains, such as this combined 553/270, carrying 57 cars of intermodal for Montreal and a 23 car block for Guilford at Mechanicville. |

Digging in |
| Description: |
Trainn 223 heads north just after passing through Bevier St, and is into the climb. Its not as bad as it looks; the track in the foreground is the NYSW connection to its line to Chenango Forks, a new connection when the railroad overpasses at Bevier St were raised in the early 90s. The ex DLW bridge was removed, and the NYSW was rerouted onto the D&H through Bevier St to a new switch just north of the bridge. 553 is still in for a pretty good climb, even with only 38 cars. |

Power change |
| Description: |
This 553 train left Binghamton with CP 5646 leading. it must have crapped out somewhere on Belden Hill and this GP9 leader was brought up from Binghamton, or swapped off 556. Still, it looks good in clean paint, even if the delay has now put the train almost in darkness, now rolling on past GR with its 82 cars. |

Todays 270 has three RS18us head out, uncommon power for this train, which usually got SDs, but not unheard of. CP would use anything that ran, as we see here. Nobody was complaining.

Unusual 4 motor |
| Description: |
Many types of units from CPs roster worked in Binghamton, but their own GP 38s were not a common sight here. Several did come to Binghamton for a short while, such as this 3032 getting set to pull 110 cars from Bevier St across the river to East Binghamton yard. The first cars of the cut are a lesson in CP-D&H history. |

Old signals |
| Description: |
In its original configuration, the DLW S&U lines crossed the D&H here at a location called BX and went to East Binghamton yard, which today is used by CP. The D&H Bevier St yard was(is) to the left out of the photo, It commected here to the DLW and the Erie, with the line to their passenger station and the Erie yard crossing the DLW line. Were looking south on the Lackawanna at a CP train coming up the old DLW, and heading onto the D&H in a reworking of the junction, now all switches with the diamond long removed. The signals guarded the BX crossing, but have been out of service for a long tiime by the date of this photo. |

Unusual meet |
| Description: |
On Aug 19 1995, a special train was run from Steamtown in Scranton to Syracuse using MILW 261, adding NYSW 142 at Chenango Bridge. Here we see 261 meeting 556 at the south end of Bevier St. As expected, the loon line is out in force. |
