A pair for 4012 |
| Description: |
A pair of GP 38-2s roll Montauk train 4012 east past the Bellerose platform. This was one of my favorite trains to catch here. With its two units in the summer, it looked like a ig time train. |

For a time, the LIRR was running its off peak Oyster Bay train as a connection at Mineola. This train has just come in off the branch, and its riders are now on the track 1 platform waiting for their west end connection. Seen from Mineola Blvd. |

Wrong main |
| Description: |
The Oyster Bay train at left is making its stop as usual on track 2. The train of M 1's is also eastbound, the two trains taking part in a dance that plays out every weekday afternoon here. The MU's are an eastbound all stops train from New York to Hicksville, which is planned to take track 1. The Oyster Bay train comes out from Jamaica on track 2, making Mineola as its first stop. While he does his station work, the MU train comes in and makes his stop. He has a stop signal on the Mineola Blvd overpass, which I am standing under. While the MU's do their work, the Oyster Bay train finishes, and takes a restricting signal to go up the branch, in front of the MU train. Once he's clear, the MU's get the signal on track 1, and resume their progress to Hicksville. Meanwhile, there are no westbound trains for about an hour while the LIRR uses both tracks eastbound between Queens and Divide. It was quite a show. |

Montauk bound |
| Description: |
I found myself in New York for my cousins wedding. Naturally, it was a chance to go back to some old haunts to check out the action. One was Bellerose, where it appeared things had not changed much in the year since I moved upstate. A pair of GP 38s rolls a long train east. Today, though, instead of the usual MP 15 power pack, there is an FA on the rear. |

Or close to it on any regular basis. In three weeks, Id be moving to Binghamton, and would not be camped out on the platform at Bellerose most Sundays, though I will be back to visit from time to time. Train 4012 will roll on, however, and todays is typical for the season: a pair of GP 38s with a cut of parlors head out, and about 14 cars for Montauk. |

Parlor car |
| Description: |
The LIRR still ran a number of parlor cars in the 80s. These were noted by their red stripe, vs blue on all other cars. Most ran on the Montauk Branch-there was an all parlor train on weekends-but there were also a couple that ran as subscription cars on the Port Jeff and Oyster Bay lines. This one is trailing 255 on an Oyster Bay train. |
