LA&L, WNYP, B&H Diesel Status

I don't remember any of the details, but I vaguely remember hearing that there were occasionally running gear problems with the "things", including one that got one set out in the middle of nowhere on the NYSW. Perhaps that goblin is back.

From the BuffaloLine Yahoo! group:

How about four M636's on the DFT!

Re 41, *IF* I had to guess, I'd bet on clogged fuel filters.

This is a little late but M636 43 is in Cohocton she must be the next six axle for the WNY&P.I saw her about two weeks ago.

A little add on to the post above she was out with C424m's 424 and 422 Today all three ran back north longhood forward.

***NEEDED INFO!!! What EMD's are left at WNYP?***

Greg, where was RRPX 41 at? last I knew it needed repairs. Where did it go?

Went North to Machias about a week ago with the #636(?) so it must be up and running. They were running in a push/pull style operation

heres a video i found on youtube of Cartier 47, which is now WNYP 637 hauling 50 loaded log cars. She is obviously younger here, and hopefully has brought good luck to the wnyp with her. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1UeR22y ... re=related

Is WNYP 550(ex-SGLR 550) still in the shop for paint and repairs? What is it's latest status?

RRPX 43 seen tonight on the DFT!

Earlier this week, the two EMDs that were seen at the sanding tower in Olean were 6510 and 6084. 636, 637 and 638 were at Falconer. On Sunday OL-1 (the crew's name) went to Hornell with 432, 431 and 630 on MEHN. 4228 was the yard switcher on Monday and Tuesday. The DFT on Monday was powered by 41 and 630. It had 73 cars +/-. HNME had 4264, 426, 431 and 430 west to east. At least that was how they lined up at sundown. 430 and 431 were turned while we were dining. 43 and Traveller also was present at Olean.

At Lakeville, 418 was in the shop for a 92-day inspection. 550 was outside with WNYP stenciled on the cab and 428 written in chalk nearby. 420 and 425 were the road power. 72 worked the yard.

Nothing ran on the B&H on Tuesday or Thursday as far as I could tell. 424 and 423 were in the house at Cohocton with 5 and 422 and 4 were outside. Also outside were 77, 3660 and 3674.

The remaining six axles are the ones most heavily freeze damaged and they for the most part are considered not repairable. Surely they have become parts sources.
