AMTK 926 |
| Description: |
AMTK 926 was built in March 1943 as PRR 4933. In 1971, this locomotive was transferred to Amtrak from Penn Central and became AMTK 4926. On November 29, 1975 this locomotive became the last GG1 to go to the Army-Navy game. In 1979, AMTK 4926 was renumbered to AMTK 926 and was retired in 1981.

D&H 229 "C.J. Brierley" |
| Description: |
D&H 229 was built by the Barney & Smith Company in 1916. It was used to Delaware & Hudsons premier passenger trains such as "Montral Limited" and "Laurentian" between New York City, NY and Montreal, QC. It was modernized in 1943 and was retired in 1968. At the time, it was the oldest coach in regular service on the Delaware & Hudson and was donated to the Central New York Chapter N.R.H.S. later that same year. In 1975, the Delaware & Hudson leased the car due to equipment shortage on the "Adirondack" passenger. They named the car C.J. Brierley in honor of the Delaware & Hudsons senior conductor, Charles J. Brierley. On March 1, 1977 Amtrak Turboliners took over the Delaware & Hudsons equipment on the "Adirondack" and D&H 229 was returned to the Central New York Chapter N.R.H.S. |

NYC 19144 |
| Description: |
During the spring and summer of 2019, the Central New York Chapter N.R.H.S. began rebuilding one of their cabooses. On Friday June 7, 2019 I was there not only to help them, but also take pictures of the rebuilding. NYC 19144 was built by the New York Central in 1910. After the Penn Central merger on Thursday February 1, 1968 this caboose spent many years as a hot dog stand on Erie Blvd East in DeWitt, NY. The caboose was saved from scrapped and was donated to the Central New York Chapter N.R.H.S. on Sunday August 17, 1986. Minolta SRT-201 with Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400. |
