Power assist
Title:  Power assist
Description:  When CP took over operation of the D&H, they almost immediately brought in leased power to augment their own fleet. There were two groups of power initially, from GATX and PLM(Precision Leasing Management). The PLM units were in this attractive blue scheme, and became known as "plums" to the local fans. Two of them lead a pair of CP units on 555, formerly PYRP, at BX, passing the Agway feed mill.

Passing OG
Title:  Passing OG
Description:  Train 167 rolls past McMaster St, where the DLW Ithaca Branch crossed the Erie, at OG tower, now long removed, as the DLW line came out in 1965, though the connection from the Lackawanna main across the river had been moved here in the consolidation of facilities in 1959. The DLW line also crossed the Lehigh Valley(todays Owego & Harford) just north of here. This part of Owego was a busy place 65 years ago.

Description:  CP 167 passes the site of Eries OG tower. It guarded the crossing of the DLW Ithaca Branch, which intersected first the Erie, approximately where the McMaster St pedestrian crossing is located-see the gates in front of the third car, then the LV Auburn Branch. The Ithaca Branch left the DLW main just west of the Owego station, which was located where the off ramp for exit 64 off westbuond NY 17 is now.
