(I didn't shoot this video, but have a rather vast knowledge of video)
Back in those days, motion picture cameras did not determine whether a piece of film was going to be B&W or color, it was the actual film that was being recorded. Color film had been around since about 1910, but was very expensive then, and for a long time afterwards.
In short, no, the "revolution" of color "cameras" (film) had been about 20 years prior.
Yes, there's a couple local (H08 & H44 I think) that run from Croxton - Campbell Hall & back (CT22 under Conrail). And they may run a local or two out of Suffern. Usually they don't look like locals, they run with widecab EMDs and have quite a few cars. The NS train that was OIBU/BUOI whose name escapes me runs over the Lehigh Line & trackage rights over CP to get to the Southern Teir in Binghamton now. If there's a problem on the River Sub. CSX will use this as a detour.
I checked a master freight schedule and neither railroad was planning to run anything other than locals east of Binghampton. There was no replacement for OIBU/BUOI.
Such changes then to now

Is that 2nd engine a C&NW? Almost looks like the paint scheme of the time.

do you know where that freight was destined?

No. But an educated guess would be Croxton Yard in Secaucus, NJ.

I thought of that but it looked like it would've come around here.

Very cool video! Does freight still operate on the Main/Bergen County Line?
