Parked for now
Title:  Parked for now
Description:  Before Conrail allowed the NYSW and D&H to change crews on its main, the stack trains had to back off Conrail, who said they didnt want the trains tying up their railroad. This was understandable, since the crew change could take anywhere from ten minutes to ten hours, depending on if there was a crew ready. This SLN 3 is backed onto the ex DLW Utica Branch while waiting for a D&H crew. Meanwhile, out of sight on the D&H, a southbound is slowly making its way to BD and the yard across the river.

On the bridge
Title:  On the bridge
Description:  Shots of the north side of the Chenango River bridge are not often seen, since the sun lights that side only late in the day for a few months in the summer. I was there on one of those occasions, catching SLN 3 as it backed its 50 Sea Land platforms and 23 freight off the Tier at QD.

Backing down
Title:  Backing down
Description:  SLN 3 backs off the Tier at QD as a local fan catches the action. The Erie station stood where the empty space is between the Southern Tier and the ex DLW, whose station is now privately owned, and can be seen to the right of the train, under the Chenango St bridge.

By the office
Title:  By the office
Description:  Power off SLN 3 sits outside the engine house in Binghamton waiting for the next eastbound. The F 45 is still to be renumbered 3636, and the two SD's trailing it are still to be given the yellow jacket scheme. They'll eventually wind up back on the BN, only this time under MRL ownership. There's one peeking out of the house too.
