Or course, Walt. That makes sense for the BU-ll, and the other side of the job, UB-22. My 1967 time table shows it as BU-19 so I didn't pick up on the connection with the symbol. The symbol doesn't show running to Scranton, only Binghamton and return. For some reason that crew had a habit of running through switches in Liberty Street Yard in the wee hours of the morning. The D&H owned the yard and maintained it, and it was leased to EL. We had to come out to repair the switch, about two or three times per week while I was Track Supervisor at Oneonta. That's another story. Gordon Davids Walter Smith wrote: > Whatever, BUT, the utica job WAS known as the BULL...............(both > ends). Probly from it's numbering..........BU 11 & UB22.
