D&H 5004 Swain

D&H 5004 leads a pair of GP39-2's on an Eastbound freight on the Southern Tier at Swain, NY on February 24, 1980. I was trying out one of the new high speed Ektachrome's, not sure if it was 200 or 400 speed. The day was abysmal and started out in Binghamton. We got the one and only D&H train that was going to run that day and headed back West towards home. We got a Conrail train working at Baker Street in Corning, then intercepted this train coming into Dalton. We got a couple pics, here at Swain, and again at Canseraga, then called it quits. Some days you could put on a lot of miles with very little to show for it, but that is part of the hobby.
