Former D&H ALCOS on a Former D&H Branch Line! Chasing the Battenkill RR & More In Upstate New York!
4/02/21:
On April 2nd I headed up to Upstate New York. My initial plan was to buff the Mohawk Sub west of Selkirk, but then I got word of something I couldn't miss.
About an hour away from the Albany region my buddy Corey (R's Trains!) informed me that the Battenkill Railroad, with their orange ex-D&H Alco RS-3, was running! Being that this railroad has no schedule and is pretty hard to catch, I knew I had to take this opportunity to see the train.
I arrived as the train was departing on its northbound run. It had the RS-3 leading, followed by a rare visitor to the line- a SNEX RS-36. More info about that unit in the video. It was very cool to see these two former D&H units (built in the 50s and early 60s) lashed together. I ended up chasing this train all the way from south of Cambridge to East Greenwich, where it terminated. I stopped at several known locations along the way and was overall very happy with how this day went. It is truly unforgettable to see this operation in action!
After wrapping things up on the Battenkill, I headed out to the CSX Mohawk Sub where I caught Q004, Q621, and Q560 with a WIDE OPEN SD40-2 trailing. Finally, I moved over to Saratoga and caught CP 651 heading north past the station with a CP/UP duo. Overall, it was a great day trackside!
