NACC C420 213 |
| Description: |
North American Car Corporation C420 213 at Igloo, South Dakota on August 25, 1983, Kodachrome by Jim Altman, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 213 was built in April 1964 as Long Island C420 213 (c/n 84784). The smoke deflectors (items protruding from the side at the top of the long hood) were added by the LI after delivery. The characteristic Alco turbo lag was not a particular problem on these locomotives for their intended application, freight work. But in the start and stop world of commuter service, the plume of smoke presented a problem and often filled the cab with smoke. The smoke deflectors did little to alleviate this problem at startup, but worked acceptably well at speed. The C420's lasted on the LI until then end of their 15 year lease (about 1979). |

LI 616 |
| Description: |
Long Island 616 on the rear of a train at Hunterpoint Station in Long Island City, Queens, New York City on an unknown day in June 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The Long Island had 19 of these power cars, converted FA1's and FA2's, the traction motors were removed, and the prime mover de-rated to 600 horsepower running at a constant speed to provide heating and lighting power to the coaches. The controls were retained and wired for push-pull service. This particular locomotive started on the SP&S as FA1 860A, built in February 1949 ( c/n 76675 ), then renumbered to SP&S 880, then became BN 4108, acquired by the LI around July 29, 1973, repowered at an unknown date with a Detroit Diesel by GE. It left the LI roster in 2001 for Touristiques des Chaudieres Appalaches ( same road number ). |

Long Island Rail Road 2790 somewhere in New York on an unknown day in June 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Just from a safety standpoint, I would think you would not align the switch in front of the locomotive on the left until the train on the right was clear. |
