Showing the flag |
| Description: |
The maple leaf, that is. The first train to come through with CP power was this 42 car acid train, symbolled 700, which ran from Montreal to Baltimore. We see it rolling south out of East Binghamton at Shaw Rd behind a trio of CP SD 40s, power we would become quite accustomed to over the next 20 years. |

CP 5676 |
| Description: |
I believe this is the first DH700 to run into Allentown yard. Train is seen running around its train in order to head west out of Allentown yard. It is 8:15 pm and some fast b&w made this shot possible. |

The first northbound train with CP power, an empty acid train, comes around the curve from BD and into the south end of Bevier St as it makes its way toward Belden Hill. How about that multimark box car?? |

Grain to Albany |
| Description: |
One of the irregular but frequent trains was BUAB, a loaded grain train that went to the Port of Albany to be loaded on ships for export. One of those trains reflects the late afternoon sun as it passes Hiawatha Rd on its way to Binghamton and a crew change with 84 cars to go north. |
