I remember that trip. It was billed as the last run of the Trainmasters but 
none had been on the east end for a long time. My friend, Perry Billington, had 
his dad, a DL&W Trainman working passenger service to Binghamton, keeping an 
eye out for them as two were reportedly going to be worked east for the trip. 
When they failed to appear, Perry and I went to Hoboken that morning and took 
slides but elected not to ride. As I recall, the trip never made it to 
Northumberland due to delays.
