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. |

Surfs Up |
| Description: |
After painting GP 38-2 252 with a red stripe when delivered to honor the Bicentennial, the LIRR later thought it would apply the scheme to all its GP38s, calling it "Surfs Up." Here we see the unit that would later be named in honor of LIRR president Walter Schlager in that scheme. To the left is LIRR 105, one of the Harold Protect units, that carried adapter couplers to pull MU trains out of the East River tunnel if needed. It would later get a retro dark gray and orange scheme reminiscent of the 1950's and 60's, complete with a Dashing Dan herald. |

Wrong side |
| Description: |
There was about an hour between 1730 and 1830 where there were no westbound trains scheduled on the Main Line between Mineola and Queens. The LIRR used that time to turn line into a double barreled shotgun for eastbounds, using both tracks for them. Heres one of the trains that passes Mineola on its way to Port Jeff running past the station wrong main. behind the engine that would later be named the Walter L Schlager, in honor of the retired LIRR president. |

SCL power |
| Description: |
There was still quite a bit of SCL power running around on the Seaboard System in the mid 80s; we saw several SCL SD45s at Rocky Mount a few nights later. Here are a couple of GEs at Miami, a U18B and U23B |

Small power |
| Description: |
Despite hordes of big GEs and EMDs, UP also rosters a large fleet of 4 motor power, which is found on locals system wide. A pair of these units are working west with a 16 car local at Wood River. To think, 30 years ago, units with these numbers would have been GP 30's. |
