Long ride done
Title:  Long ride done
Description:  A train from Jamaica has completed the 100 mile trip from Jamaica, now arriving at the farthest east place on the LIRR behind a pair of just delivered GP 38s in their original paint scheme. Most of the riders have detrained in the Hamptons, but a few hardy souls made the full run to weekend here at the end of the island.

New platform
Title:  New platform
Description:  One of the improvements Long Island made in the mid 80s was to erect high level platforms at all stations. While this provided access for those in wheelchairs, it also detracted from the historic views of the stations. Here we see the new platform that was just installed at Smithtown as a westbound led by 270 makes its stop as an eastbound, pushed by 274, heads for Port Jefferson

Montauk Manor
Title:  Montauk Manor
Description:  Dad would spend a week most years at Montauk out on the east end of Long Island. On ine trip in the mid 80s-a guess, theres no date on the slide mount, but the paint scheme on the passenger car would bear that out-he shot a LIRR GP38-2 under the big hotel on the bluff, \Montauk Manor, which appears to be undergoing some work

Double down to Port Jeff
Title:  Double down to Port Jeff
Description:  This Port Jefferson train has a pair of GP 38-2s rolling it west as it makes its stop at Mineola. There were a number of trains that ran with pairs of units, rather than just the one that powered most trains. Usually they were the heavier trains-some runs had 14 or 15 cars-and the parlor heavy Montauk trains.

LIRR 259
Title:  LIRR 259
Description:  Some units seem to follow me around, although admittedly on a small(383 route miles, almost all on the same island) its hard not to see the same power over and over. This is the second shot of 259 and 274 together, this time at Mineola on a Montauk train
