 I was living in Marlyland at the time of this derailment, and  from what I 
understand the derailment was 
at the brick plant siding. It seems to me  the switch into the  
Harbison-Walker plant was off of #1 track
the westbound track. 2/NY100 must have been runninig eastbound on  the 
westbound track. Does anyone know if this is correct and why it was  coming east on 
the wrong main.
  I have photo of 3657 on my E-L web page in Binghamton after it had  been 
re-built and in 2005 as MRL 332.

That is correct, the 2/NY-100 was operating east on the westbound main  track 
from Kent to SN Jct. and found the switch open at Windham.
 
Keith Robbins had posted the facts a few months ago--he was dispatching in  
Marion when train 78 or some other train had trouble resulting in the detour  
movement.
