Colorful pushers
Title:  Colorful pushers
Description:  The second daytime move of a BUAB with SOO power was Dec 9, this time northbound, leaving Binghamton late morning. The head end was an unexpected treat, but the pushers were also not to be ignored. An EMD lease unit in an attractive paint job reminiscent of the last Rock scheme was teamed with a candy apple red SOO unit. Here they are pushing at Fuller Rd.

Lots of changes
Title:  Lots of changes
Description:  Everything. As we look at BUABs pushers, and EMD lease unit and a red SOO SD 40, note also the rest of this view. I am standing on what was the DLW Utica Branch, now abandoned. The track in the foreground is the new connection from the D&H to the NYSWs ex DLW line; you can see the Old State Rd crossing at far left. This was done as part of a project to eliminate the three overpasses at Bevier St, one ex DLW, two D&H, none of which was high enough to clear a standard 13'6" trailer, making access to businesses on Broad Av a challenge. As part of that project, the NYSW gained access to its line via a new connection north of Bevier St, requiring its trains to go through that yard. The D&H was largely unaffected, except for realigning its tracks onto the new overpass. The train looks like its climbing to the sky due to the downgrade on the NYSW connector; its not as bad as it looks.
