| Dave of the "DL Files" (see http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/archivethumbs.aspx?id=8272, as well as other photos in this album) poses in Long Island RR observation car 2082 "Asharoken", shown here as part of the consist of the LIRR "Cannon Ball" in the yard at Montauk, NY. The car was formerly DL&W 790, built by Budd in 1949 as a tavern-lounge-observation car for the "Phoebe Snow." The car survives as Metro North track inspection car #2. Date approximate. |
