Those are great shots. A rare and unique location to catch a train. How often do the trains use the Montauk Cutoff Secondary to get over to the Arch Street customer? Do they use the MCS for any other movements?

Thanks all for the kind comments.

The cut-off gets used a lot, just never happen to be in the area with camera when they are running. Arch Street freight house sees a good number of movements.

As for other movements, I've seen the Circus train up on the flyover a few years ago, and some LIRR MofW stuff too.
