I suspect I've previously posted this photo of EL SDP45 pulling a typical EL High & Wide train westward on the ex-Erie main at Binghamton in spring of 1971 but it's the set up for the next photo showing how the ex-D&H Eldridge St yard (on the left) and ex-Erie yard usage has evolved over 45 years. In the Southern Tier's pre-Conrail days, the view from the Chenango St bridge was second in fascinating railroad activity only to the pedestrian bridge of the Lehigh Valley engine facility at Sayre.
