The LIRR's fleet of M7s bask in afternoon sunlight while the numerous double slip switches get a workout moving trains in and out of West Side Yard. This yard will be covered up to 11th Street with a high-rise apartment building making this picture impossible in the coming years.
All those shots of interesting railroad details, what you see trackside, up close and personal! Excludes shots going into my other albums: "Engine Details," "Signal Details," and "Switchstand Shots."
