DLW side |
Description: |
WABH 11, the Binghamton local job, works the Agway feed mill. The plant was served by a remnant of the Lackawanna S&U line. By this time, the bridges over Bevier St had been consolidated onto one overpass, high enough to clear a 13'6" trailer, so this track that was once the S&U main track, had been cut back to allow enough room to switch the plant, with through trains going through the D&H yard, where a white ex KCS unit can be seen to the right of the last car of this train. |

Great view |
Description: |
One of the more panoramic views of the Tier, but a hard one to get, since you could only get this shot sunlit late in the day in the summer, and there was no place convenient to park, was this shot of the line from the hill on Watson Blvd as it approached Endwell. When it worked, it was a great shot. Here it is with OIBU rolling west with 41 cars on a Friday afternoon. |

OIBU in the late afternoon |
Description: |
OIBU was a pretty reliable afternoon train at Binghamton, which made for some great lighting, such as on todays train, working QD yard. The steel structire at right is a Marconi tower. The Lackawanna RR was an early experimenter with radio communication, and had erected the tower to transmit from the station to trains in 1913. There is a NY State historical marker to note its significance. |

JC coal |
Description: |
A UNE coal train with 87 cars for the NYSEG Goudy Generating Station on the old DLW main in Johnson City rolls into the west side of Binghamton. For some reason, these trains drew 4 axle power most of the time, even though the road units rarely went to the plant. Local power off WABH 11 usually took the cars down in roughly 45 car cuts. |
