A D&H e/b rolls over the Harpursville trestle with three C424's for power on 09MAR1985

D&H C424m #454 at Laflin, Pa.

A pair of D&H Alcos, including one of a kind 5002 with its script lettering, sit at East Binghamton with an NYSW SD 45.

The line up at the East Binghamton shop is almost all Alco today. There are four C 424's, and RS 36 and RS 3M. What's that GP 38 doing there?? Must be lost.

A pair of the MK rebuilt C 424s sit outside the Binghamton shop. These two escaped the Guilford paint booth, and are still in their blue D&H scheme, a bit worse for wear, but still blue.

Despite having acquired a fleet of GEs, and later a number of EMDs, the D&H could still put together an impressive Alco consist, such as this one at East Binghamton.

There were two sets of consecutive units on this train. The leaders were a pair of U23s, now a pair of ex Reading GP 39s. This was a typical power set in the mid 80s.

When Guilford took over the D&H, they moved much of the power around their roster, with the D&H units being most affected. An example of that is the two units leading this train, which appears to be the PYRP. Once D&H U23Bs, they are now lettered for the Maine Central. It became a sore point at the D&H that Guilford kept all the newer power when it let the D&H go in 1988.

B&M and D&H had been running power through for some time, and it was not uncommon to see solid sets of the other roads power deep into the home roads territory. Heresa three unit set of Alcos heading into E Deerfield on a D&H train.
