This wye goes well back into the age of Steam, as there was never a turntable at Montauk. In the 1960s when both the "Cannon Ball" and the "Advance Cannon Ball" normally ran with open-end Parlor-Observation cars on the rear, they were turned on this wye before going back West on Sunday.

This must be the end of the line for the LIRR.

Not much room there after that crossing... I wonder how many close calls there was over the years? Especially if they were turning around a large steam engine...
