Richmondville derailment (1974)

Bad things happen at bad times. Here are a couple of shots of a D&H freight train wreck in Richmondville, NY that are dated December 21, 1974.

It is nice to see that the "big hook" crane was still used for these types of recovery jobs. I have many pictures of D&H cranes from the 1970s-1990s and may eventually post them on here. For another shot of a D&H crane train, see here.
