Lots of old stuff here
Title:  Lots of old stuff here
Description:  Train 553 rolls through BX in a scene that has some classic New York flavor. Note the Genesee Beer truck between the trailing unit and the first trailer, in the background, a long time upstate NY favorite. On the railroad side, the signal that protected the crossing of the DLW and D&H at BX still stands, its lights long smashed out, but the classic mast is not giving up just yet.

Coming out
Title:  Coming out
Description:  Train 553 has left East Binghamton, and is now approaching BD, where he will cross the Tier and head north. CP Alcos were common on these trains, often six axles, though they seemed to elude me. The D&H unit is not usually a part of this effort. They must have had a bigger train than usual, or combined it with 270, which sometimes happened. Its also possible the D&H unit was being moved to Saratoga or Mohawk.
