A Sunday afternoon finds a couple of trains carrying parlors in the yard at Montauk, seen in this view from Montauk Manor, the large building seen up on the hill above the station. Thats Fort Pond Bay beyond the yard, and Hither Hills State Park in the distance. Twenty years earlier, this scene would have been filled with cars from the heavyweight and streamline era, pulled by C 420s. Thirty years earlier, same cars, mostly, but FM C Liners. Forty years prior, G 5s and K 4s. |
