Tom Beckett General Definitely Mineola. That's the Mineola Blvd overpass in the distance. This location has changed a lot since this photo was taken. Track 2, the near track, will soon be the center track. The platform the photographer is stznding on is gone, the space taken by the new third track. A new platform is being built on the outside of the third track. 11/3/2021 4:07:01 AM
