Fantastic stuff. Half of it's in color. Steam engines on the LIRR in color. Incredible!

Holy cow! This is amazing stuff, including Sunnyside Yard! The variety of steam is fantastic, and in color!
What a find!

All I can say is WOW! An early Christmas present. I still have half way to go. Kind of saving it for later. I am sure eagle eyed viewers can ID some of the locations. Some, such as Sunnyside, Mineola and Hicksville are obvious. Many of the shots are clearly part of an LIRR fan trip(s). Great stuff!
