Going back to the train
Title:  Going back to the train
Description:  RF 64 has run as far east as its going to on the Port Jeff branch today, and is now running around its train to start back as RF 65. That train more often got a pair of MP 15s, but occasionally would get a pair of Alcos. Im not complaining about the substitution.

RF 65
Title:  RF 65
Description:  RF 65 heads west toward Hicksville behind a pair of C 420s. When LIRR started building high level platforms at all its stations, it also built pedestrian overpasses, which opened up photo angles previously not available. Here, Im taking advantage of the the new overpass to get this panoramic view of Kings Park on the Port Jeff branch.
