Switching |
Description: |
RF 62 often did extensive switching at Riverhead where there were several sidings and an active team track. Here the power backs down to a hitch with a boxcar as the rest of the train sits on the main. This train did not have radios for the crews, and all moves were coordinated by hand signals. |

Meeting an eastbound |
Description: |
The challenge for RF 62/63 was to get out to Riverhead, do whatever work it had to get done along the way, and get back to Pine Aire in time to beat the rush hour. They usually made it, though would start to run up against the leading edge of the rush hour parade as they got west of Ronkonkoma. Heres RF 63 meeting train 254 behind class unit 250 at Deer Park. Almost home. |
