Once home to a fleet of GG 1s, now AEM 7s dominate. The LIRR "hump" at Sunnyside Yard A is at left, with a freight ready to go out. |

Getting started |
| Description: |
An AEM 7 pokes its nose out from under 9th Av as it rolls through the short stretch of daylight between 9th Av and the North River tunnel entrance with a DC bound train. Dad lived on 34th St off 9th Av, and passed here often. Sometimes hed grab a shot. |

Daylight |
| Description: |
There was a short stretch of daylight between the station tracks and the end of the North River tubes, roughly between 9th and 10th Avenues. It provded a small glimpse into the underground life of the city. Dad lived just off 9th Av on 34th St, and came by here often. He liked the image of the complicated track pattern-of necessity due to the need to get 21 station tracks into two tracks for the tunnels. |
