We follow the New York, Susquehanna, and Western Railroad along their route from Northern New Jersey to Binghamton, New York. From Binghamton, we head west along New York State’s Southern Tier in this exciting video that was four years in the making. Highlights of this breathtaking odyssey include:
*Susquehanna Railroad trains between New Jersey and Binghamton, NY
*Locations along the legendary Delaware Division including Millrift, Lackawaxen, Gulf Summit, Starrucca Viaduct, and Susquehanna
*The Binghamton area including the Canadian Pacific at Harpursville Trestle, Belden Hill, and Tunkhannock Viaduct
*Operating semaphores between Binghamton and Buffalo, NY
*Conrail and Norfolk Southern trains soaring over Portage Viaduct, one of the highest railroad bridges in the Northeast!
We’ve also included several “then and now” scenes, showing what the line looked like under former owner, the Erie Lackawanna Railway. You’ll be amazed at the astounding variety of trains along this scenic and historic line and will quickly understand why the Southern Tier is one of the most revered lines in the Northeast!

Also shot by Mr. Gulash is a flashback to May of 1973 where a younger Ross Rowland takes the throttle of Reading T1 4-8-4 number 2102 (recently restored in Port Clinton Pennsylvania) as Delaware & Hudson 302. More action of 2102/302 can be found in Green Frog’s 1995 video: Twilight of Steam.
