MP-15ac Protect engine deployment

How many MP-15ac's get deployed as protect engines by the LIRR before a snowstorm typically and where are they sent to? Yesterday I saw one sitting on the west leg of the wye at Belmont passing by on the Cross Island Parkway. Thanks.

Any going to be put out for tonight's snowfall?

161 was just east of Jamaica and I saw 170 working that position last Wednesday. At Harold it was 102 and 104 today, last Wednesday I believe it was 158 at Harold.

Does anyone know of any other protect engines out for the storms?

Saw one in Babylon yard before the last storm.

171 sits at the east end of KO yard, and picture of it to be posted shortly!

Proof is in the picture folks!!!!

I saw 164 running light westbound through Hollis this morning around 1030 or so.
