LIRR RS3 #1559 - Long Island RR |
| Description: |
Stopped at the Mineola station, this 1955 Alco built RS3 has a respectable passenger train of 6 cars. Based on the poster on the platform advertising the British movie "Rattle of a Simple Man", it must be the fall of 1964-65 so the date is approximate. This is an excellent example of a typical commuter action shot from the 1960's by photographer John Krause. |

| Description: |
Long Island's Port Jeff freight on the Kings Park State Hospital branch. Pretty sure there is track somewhere under those weeds! LI 1551 was scrapped at Morris Park shops 11/76. Happily, LI 1559 survives at the Monticello Railroad Museum in Illinois as faux IC 704. |
