    These vids help a ton when it comes to research for my 1980s era D&H layout. Thank you for that!

    My father and grandfather both worked for the D&H out of Oneonta,NY. This is a nice video.

    I grew up along this line, and did my fair share of train watching at around this time.

    At 5:50, that is kind of a neat looking tunnel. Looks like it is based on what appears to be of a parabolic arch design.

    Guilford's purchase of the D&H was completed on January 4th, 1984. So this was a Guilford/D&H train.

      hence the B&M caboose. If you think it will get this thing the search results & views it so-deserves, I'll add it to the title!

      @@EDOTrains Being a Guilford guy, I don't think it would hurt. In later years this train was symbolled PYPO, and in 1988, PYBA.

    Terrific video. 4 Alcos up front, Big GE's shoving on the rear....

    you people are crazy that this doesn't have more views. Put your earbuds in and lose your mind, my goodness.

    Hi
    I'm putting together a TH-cam Video on the Gilford D&H merger. Would it be ok if I used some of this footage?

    Seems bizarre but in 2021 the U boats are more rare than the Alcos...

    This line doesn't exist anymore? I know that the D&H doesn't, but was this pulled up?

    • @EDOTrains

      no this is all there still. It went to CP Rail first and is now NS

    That was a wishbone gate with lantern lights, wasn't it.

      not entirely sure, but everything appears to be as close to 1940s original as one can get!
