Westbound extra
Title:  Westbound extra
Description:  This westbound extra train snuck through Mineola in the teeth of rush hour, something that was very unusual on the Long Island, where only about 10% of their revenue was from freight. It was not uncommon to see freights on some of the lines in Chicago, where they were not shy about mixing a 100 car train in with the "dinkies"; It was almost unheard of here.

RF 91
Title:  RF 91
Description:  RF 91 was the overnight westbound freight from Pine Aire to Fresh Pond, using the power that had been on RF 63 from Riverhead. Besides doing the road haul, it also worked at Hiucksville and did local switching en route. Tonights train has an MP 15 leading, which occasionally happened if there was not a C 420 ready. Its about 0300, and the train is working the siding east of New Hyde Park on the westbound side, requiring the train to stop in the station while the switch is lined. I took advantage of the stop to get a shot.

RF 65
Title:  RF 65
Description:  RF 65 originated at Pinelawn and worked west on the Main Line to Hicksville, then either up the Port Jefferson Branch, or to the Montauk Branch via B tower and the Central Branch. Here we see it passing through the new high level platforms at Farmingdale just after the morning rush making its trip to Hicksville to work the yard there, then on to the rest of the days assignments.

Ringling Bros train
Title:  Ringling Bros train
Description:  The Ringling Brothers circus usually played the Nassai Coliseum in Uniondale in late November and December. They would run the train out on the Mitchell Field Secondary to access the Coliseum, as it was the closest place to it, and where they could tie up a 60 odd car train. The morning after the circus closed, the train would run west via the Hempstead Branch and Main Line to Long Island City, where Amtrak power would go on, and it would run to Jersey via Penn Station. Here we see it coming around the curve at Floral Park.
