Montauk train |
| Description: |
A Montauk train rolls past the Mineola station. It will take the Central Branch from B tower in Bethpage to Babylon to get onto the south shore. The signals in the background guard a pair of crossovers just west of the station. Note the parlor car head out. |

Rolling on the south shore |
| Description: |
Most Montauk trains ran the Central Branch and the Main Line via Hicksville, though if they did not have any stops(some made Mineola, and at least one south shore train during the week made Bethpage), the dispatcher had his choice of routes. This Montauk train was one of those, and we see it rolling west through Valley Stream on its way to city connections at Jamaica. Valley tower, at right of the train, controls the tracks going off to the right, the Far Rockaway Branch, and a connection to the West Hempstead Branch, which diverges to the left out of the photo beyond the train of M 1's in the distance. |
