Rainy night on the Island |
| Description: |
LIRR train RF 11 arrives at the Pine Aire station late in the evening. It usually passed Mineola around 1:30 AM; this shot was probably taken around 2:30. The crew will go off duty here, and a new crew will switch the train and go east in the morning as Riverhead turn RF 62/63 |

RF 91 |
| Description: |
In a mood shot at the New Hyde Park station, RF 91 arrives and prepares to switch a customer on the westbound track just east of the station. There is a long running track here east of the New Hyde Park Rd crossing that allows the power to reach several customers without having to use the main track for headroom, although they will leave most of their train on track 1 while they switch. Freight on this part of the railroad is done at night as there is less conflict with passenger runs. RF 91 usually runs west from Hicksville in the two hour gap between passenger trains that occurs from approximately 1 to 3 AM. |

Times, they are a changin |
| Description: |
C 420 229 leads RF 63 through Ronkonkoma in October of 1986. The earth work has already started for the Ronkonkoma electrification, as evidenced by the grading done next to the track. The new service will start in January 1988. |

Lite RF 7 |
| Description: |
RF 7 was a catch all train that worked whatever needed to be done on the west end, and could be found anywhere. Today its headed east past Bellerose on the main line with a C420 and MP15, probably to handle a customer switch somewhere fairly close. |

Bright nose |
| Description: |
The trip packet for the Kabin Kar Trek promised a surprise, and this was it. They had repainted two of the C 420s in the original MTA blue/yellow scheme, though the blue was a bit darker than as delivered. Still, they looked good. This is the nose of 229 as it sits at Clinton Rd while riders reboard after a runby. |
