DELAWARE & HUDSON TRAIN #MB-1 ROLLS WEST ON A VERY COLD DAY - CANASERAGA, NEW YORK - FEBRUARY 11, 1979
Semaphore Sunday finds us frozen in New York State, where on a very cold morning D&H train #MB-1 rolls westward kicking up plenty of powdery snow. During this era, It was rather typical even if sort of unwanted, to find this westbound as the first daylight action when visiting the old EL mainline. But at least it was a train to chase, and something to do as one hoped for an eastbound freight out of Buffalo. This train has two GP39-2 diesels for power, of which the D&H owned 40 units, 20 original purchase versions and 20 picked up from the Reading Lines.
Being that this is also Christmas, my best wishes for everyone to have a great Christmas. I thought I'd provide my wishes in the two most common languages of my Flickr followers, assuming the rest will also understand one or the other.
