Re: Fresh Power
All nine units came from ALCO with the "horns" or eyebrows. When the units were rebuilt at Hornell 451 thru 456 had the eyebrows cut back flush with the carbody end. It remains a mystery as to why 461

Re: Fresh Power
There's a good chance D&H accepted delivery at Hornell since they ran through there. I've seen images of D&H power fueling at the Hornell racks in the late 70s. Jim ________________________________

Fresh Power
D&H #463, 462, 461 C424m fresh. Should be 1980. No other date or location. I see the other D&H power. Taylor or Binghamton? Maybe the power lines over the yard are a tell. These were the G&W-financed

Re: A bit of the NJ
