Description:  WABH 11, the Binghamton local job, works the Agway feed mill. The plant was served by a remnant of the Lackawanna S&U line. By this time, the bridges over Bevier St had been consolidated onto one overpass, high enough to clear a 13'6" trailer, so this track that was once the S&U main track, had been cut back to allow enough room to switch the plant, with through trains going through the D&H yard, where a white ex KCS unit can be seen to the right of the last car of this train.
