I came up with a bright idea after being to the coney is. subway shops.
the meuseum has 2 tracks set aside for them to use for the meuseum trians.
hers the plan and it will only work with everys onec coorpration.
from what I understand i may be wrong, the old back shops and transfer table in morrs park are not in use and indanger of being distroyed.
as a group lets act and stand our grounds to perserve out history and at the same time be able to use the shops for RMLI and Friends of 35 to store and work on the equpt.
Riverhead is out of room and is open to the general public. the back shops are secure withen the morris pk facility and not accessable to the general public. so as a group we should take a step foward and get off our computer chairs and make every attempt to do this. (the subway meuseum is.. u gussed it, funded by out lovely MTA) im not even asking them for a penny, even if the LIRR ownes the shops instead of letting it deteriate they let RMLI get it and used it for there own work to be done.
it should not interfer with the operation with the LIRR and the trains can be brought in as if they were just LIRR "Extras" and the same to getem back to the meuseum on the wkends.
this will benifit all of LIRR railfans and should not be overlooked. becaus when "whats left" are not standing anymore, then every one here will be Bit**ing that the shops are gone.
