Oyster Bay trains meet
Title:  Oyster Bay trains meet
Description:  One of the scheduling features of the Oyster Bay Branch is that the trains will meet in Mineola. This is not really necessary, since the line is double track to Locust Valley, but it does work well for connections to the rest of the system. A westbound train pushes toward Jamaica as the eastbound rolls into the station.

In his honor
Title:  In his honor
Description:  LIRR was honoring at least a few of their employees who served in the first Gulf War. Here, on engine 258 at Mineola, we see a plaque for Paul Pombonyo. I hope he got home OK following his service, and has gone on to a good life back in the states.

Back to back
Title:  Back to back
Description:  The LIRR ran most of its trains with a single unit as they were not heavy enough to need more than that. Some of the Montauk trains were exceptions, such as this weekend only 4012. The Sunday train was sometimes 14 or 15 cars, since it was used to return parlors to the east end for the New York bound trains starting in on Sunday afternoon. Here we see it with a pair of GP 38s rolling out of Queens interlocking

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.
