The east end of Great Neck station on the Port Washington Branch is seeing some changes. The steel work is up for a new signal bridge, which will control the interlocking just beyond the platforms. The configuration at the time of the photo is two tracks going to single, then a switch leading to a pocket track. The new set up will be track 2, the eastbound track, going straight into the pocket, and a set of crossovers to facilitate moves in and out, as well as for trains going from 2 to 1 to continue east, the arrangement that is currently in place. |
