It will shortly be in Port Jervis.

Not as bad as it looks
Title:  Not as bad as it looks
Description:  The 751 train starts up Belden hill from Bevier St, the rdar of the train still in the yard. It looks like a hellacious climb-and it is at times-but here, because the new connection to the NYSW, seen below, slopes down, the grade looks worse than it really is. It still aint easy!!

Phosphate train
Title:  Phosphate train
Description:  One of the sporadic moves to run on the D&H was a phosphate train that originated in Floridas Bone Valley on CSX. It was usually symbolled 751, and had run through CSX power. This time, its a pair of Seaboard System SD 40-2s, which we see behind a pair of GATX lease units at the north end of Dyes Siding, which was on the grade about a mile south of Belden Tunnel. It has since been removed, thought the signal mast remains.
