Still working both sides |
| Description: |
A C420 is in the midst of its train on RF 7, passing Jamaica station, as a passenger train passes behind another C 420. By this time, the LIRR had all of its 28 GP38-2s in service, and it was becoming unusual to see an Alco on a passenger train. This was quite a catch. |

Work train |
| Description: |
In June 1984, there was a washout on the Port Washington Branch about 1/2 mile east of Little Neck, which closed the line for a couple of weeks while the repairs were made. These C 420s brought the work train out and were parked at Douglaston station, a very unusual circumstance. View is from the Douglaston Parkway overpass. |

RF 91 |
| Description: |
RF 91 was the overnight westbound freight from Pine Aire to Fresh Pond, using the power that had been on RF 63 from Riverhead. Besides doing the road haul, it also worked at Hiucksville and did local switching en route. Tonights train has an MP 15 leading, which occasionally happened if there was not a C 420 ready. Its about 0300, and the train is working the siding east of New Hyde Park on the westbound side, requiring the train to stop in the station while the switch is lined. I took advantage of the stop to get a shot. |

RF 63 rolls past the Ronkonkoma station and under a bridge that has been smoked by E6, H10, G5 and K4 steam power. The whole scene will change in another 15 months when the Ronkonkoma electrification project is complete. Already the earthwork and utilities are being installed, as well as some grading. |

| Title: |
RF 62 nears Riverhead |
| Description: |
RF 62 is almost to where it will do most of its work today, passing Calverton, one of the more unremarked points on the LIRR. There is not much here at this time, just some relay rail. There was once a station, now long gone. Trains quit stopping here in the 70s. |
