Eastern Railroad Discussion > NYS&W Short Timer SD60Date: 08/14/22 06:49 NYS&W Short Timer SD60 Author: train1275 In August 2018 the NYSW had a serious derailment that totalled two ex Oakway SD60's and disabled a third one, along with an SD33ECO.
The ECO and SD60 were repaired, but the totalled units were scrapped (posted a few days back on trainorders - https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?2,5522072). As replacement power the leasing company supplied two more ex Oakway units that became NYSW 9014 and 9059 (their former Oakway numbers). The 9014 was retained but the 9059 was not accepted, and returned to due mechanical and electrical issues after just a few road trips, none of which were successful. The 9059 is seen here with an oversized nose logo at its normal place of residence, the Binghamton, NY Shop, on May 8, 2019 surrounded by more productive power. Edited 2 time(s).
