Remarks & Notes |
"Pups at Dunton"
Long Island Railroad's RFX6 tows the rail reclaim train past Dunton Tower on the Atlantic Branch at Richmond Hill on the morning of January 17th, 2021.
The rail reclaim train picks up old rails along the right of way to send out for scrap and recycling. The train was also used to drop small sections of new rail where a normal Continuous Welded Rail train would not fit. The train consists of LIRR's only two running EMD SW1001s (103 & 105) for power and 7 open-ended gondolas. |
