Was in Gettysburg yesterday, and whilst there observed boxcars in town, and shiny rails on the tracks that were the "unfinished railroad," in the cut where there was considerable loss in July, 1865.....anyway, what railroad is that, what motive power does it have, is it a daily operation? ...

Excellent!!!!!! Though short-lived in it's branding, the locomotive livery and same on the plate C boxcars was great. Got to see some of the SBD's boxcars on the Long Island RR back in the '80s, spotted at the Garden City and Hicksville team yards, the PW wye team track in E. Farmingdale, and on the...

You'll probably get a quicker answer in one of the LIRR/NYA-related groups on Facebook, such as "Long Island Rail Freight," "The Unofficial Long Island Rail Road" or "LIRR Historic Photos." A lot of good pictures, and usually good information in those pages on FB.

Re: Low-lying Garden City bridge getting a boost for safety

I saw Stonytown Rd. in Plandome mentioned in a list of other low bridges in the system. I recall several times in the mid-90s, while working in Plandome, that several landscapers riding up in back of their company trucks were killed or seriously injured by striking the bridge while standing up. Not ...

Awesome, as always. Several sessions needed to review all the new material.

Don't forget the #600. She was the first power-pack in 1971. Don't know what became of her, after her and the other 244-engined FA's, 601-604, 610 and 618, were relegated to stand-by status in 1985-86, and then sent off-property in 1988-on.

Was in the Atlanta-area yesterday and went to lunch at the Bluetop on Peachtree Rd. in Chamblee. On the way there, I was pleasantly surprised to see yard trackage, an unguarded grade crossing for a spur serving a customer nearby, and a building with signage saying "Norfolk Southern Chamblee Ter...
