RF extra |
| Description: |
A single MP 15 rolls east through Hicksville station with a handful of cars. RF 65 has just passed through in the opposite direction, so this train is not the return of RF 65 to the south shore. LIRR freight operations could be confusing at times. This is one of them!! MP 15's were the common power for the outlying locals at the time. The RS 3's were gone about three years at this point, and the remaining C 420's were on the "road" trains from Yard A to the east end, and sometimes still held down a commuter run. |

Freight power |
| Description: |
The power for the freights running from Holban Yard often sat out on a ready track along the main line. At that time, C420s were the usual power on the road trains, with MP15s handling the lighter work. Heres a pair of Centuries and an MP15 waiting for their next trip east in the evening. |

Local freight |
| Description: |
One of the locals that works the Montauk Branch, probably RF 7, though that job usually got C 420's, passes through Fresh Pond on its way back to yard A at Sunnyside. |

Circus train going away |
| Description: |
The Ringling Bros circus train made an annual trip to Long Island, playing a string of shows at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale. The train would use the Mitchell Field Secondary to stage for the shows. Here we see it rolling through Forest Hills with the only instance I can think of where "foreign" equipment ran through onto Long Island-a Conrail caboose. |

This lite power move, most likely an RF 7, since that train used to do most of the "as needed" work on the west end, passes Bellerose station. |
