LI 607 - Long Island RR
Title:  LI 607 - Long Island RR
Description:  Nice shot of the end power car of an eastbound train next to the Mineola, NY, station platform. Mike Woodruff helped locate and date this photo. He mentioned that the 607 got those nose marker lights in the fall of 1975, but it's clearly summer in your shot. By 1979, the 607 had small "607" numerals centered on the nose, just above the pilot. Therefore, this photo was taken by an unknown photographer between 1976-78.

Nassau interlocking
Title:  Nassau interlocking
Description:  LI 607 brings up the rear of an Oyster Bay train taking the branch. In the photo, we see Nassau tower, and to its right, the power station that once supplied third rail power for the line that ran to a connection with the Hempstead Branch at Garden, a few miles south in Garden City, a line which was abandoned in the late 60s. I am standing on the extended platform, located where the connection to the branch once ran-it surved around to the right of the power station. Nassau was once a larger junction than now, with the Main Line going east and west, and connections to Oyster Bay and the south shore via the branch to Hempstead.

Clean paint
Title:  Clean paint
Description:  It was encouraging to see LIRR still painting its FAs this late in their careers. The Ronkonkoma electrification project would open in a year, and their future was clouded.

Clean power
Title:  Clean power
Description:  Well, the paint is-we all know that Alcos were heavy smokers, though by this time, these units had Caterpillar engine/generator sets installed, and were much more efficient and cleaner running. This is a Ronkonkoma train headed east.

Blasting through
Title:  Blasting through
Description:  Except for one morning rush train, everything that came in the Main Line from Mineola made its last stop before Jamaica at New Hyde Park, about 1/4 mile to the east. This Port Jeff train made its last stop at Mineola, and is getting a good roll on as it approaches the upgrade to Floral Park on its way to LIRRs main transfer point.
