So the Red Heifer is not currently in service? Is it even operational? I remember riding the D&U with the Red Heifer in the early 80's on a school trip. Probably the fall of '83. What I remember is that part of the train came uncoupled, and we left our teacher behind in the other car. Also I was...

Did the D & O every haul any freight? I can't picture who they would have deliveryed frieght to on the first 2.6 miles of the Ulster & Delaware.

Acouple of sites with GG-1 info.

Another question, How long ago, or when were the GG-1's brought to Cooperstown Junction?

So the question I still have, is were is all this stuff ( garbage, demolition debris, or whatever) ending up? Whose back yard is this stuff ending up in?

I used to worked in Oneonta till 2 years ago, and I remember seeing them there all the time, even when they threw a blue tarp over one to keep it dry. I do rememeber sometime in the last 2 year driving through that way, and noticing they where no longer out next to the CP Tracks, did they move them ...
