We had permission from PSE&G in 2006 to remove the fill that covered the track to the equipment where the gate is shown. At that time we could have moved the equipment up to the siding to CSX which still had the switch in place. Could have easily craned to heavy duty flat cars. At that time the ...
There's actually a D&H Lightning Stripe RS36 on the Batten Kill, it's just not 5019. It's not a D&H engine, but numbered 5012. I believe it came from DCL RR.

I noticed Poland is off the list for Herkimer County. It's still there. The owner encapsulated it with a new structure but it exists. He retained the original window in the peak of the roof on the west end.
I drove through Bainbridge last week, the freight house is gone unfortunately
Awesome video, wondering where this actually was, near Sand Rd crossing or closer to 365?
When I was in the Navy in 1990 I went over to Cape Charles and saw the 203 sitting in the yard, highly corroded. I have some pix someplace. Also V&M 202 survives, originally LIRR 221....went to NYS&W around 1982 and operated out of Utica with C-420 2000. She was numbered 2002 IAW NYS&W p...
Looks like roller bearing trucks on at least 2 of them...not very common for Blunt trucks

When that didn't pan out, was sold to ne...
Former Fore River RR GE 50 Tonner #10, Built Aug 1947, still exists and was recently delivered to a customer at the Glenville Business and Technology Park near Scotia NY.
I have a 3 page copy of a magazine article...that is the third page. The article is by Kermit Geary Jr. and called Requiem for a Railroad I assume, based on the font and layout, that it appeared in the Jersey Central Lines, the monthly publication of the Jersey Central Chapter NRHS. This publication...
Yes think if the residents of NYC read in the NY Post that the Water Authority is sending multi-millions of their $$$ to pay for a trail next to a reservoir 2 hours away...
Generally if its less than 50 tons and height isn't an issue it's a very practical way to move the smaller engines around. The 43 was pulled up onto the trailer by a U23B and driven off under its own power in Kingston. Most critical part is finding a spot where the ground is close to level with the ...
42, a heavier locomotive, was moved to CMRR at Kingston on a low boy and did not require cranes to load or unload. The cost to move the locomotive was very reasonable.
