NYSW SD45 #3622 Alden NY1 viewsWestbound D&H EBBU is a rainbow of color with five different attractive paint schemes on a beautiful late summer day. The train is led by freshly repainted ex-BN SD45 #3622, followed by ex-Frisco SD45 #6695, still in Cascade Green, a D&H Alco C424M, and two CSX units, one still attired in Chessie System colors. NYS&W's aggressive marketing, coupled with friendly connections with CSX, NS, and the newly formed B&P would breath new life into the Guilford castoff.
