Wrong end east |
Description: |
Typically, the push pull sets on Long Island ran with the power pack on the west end. This one seems to have gotten turned around, as the MP 15 providing train power is facing east, with GP 38-2 272 on the west end. The Stony Brook station is one of the more attractive stations on the island, surprisingly small considering it's adjacent to the SUNY Stony Brook campus, out of the photo to the left. |

New platform |
Description: |
One of the improvements Long Island made in the mid 80s was to erect high level platforms at all stations. While this provided access for those in wheelchairs, it also detracted from the historic views of the stations. Here we see the new platform that was just installed at Smithtown as a westbound led by 270 makes its stop as an eastbound, pushed by 274, heads for Port Jefferson |

New station |
Description: |
Actually it was new in 1970 or so, but while the design was classic IND, the materials-mostly terrazo-were quite a departure from the concrete and tile that had been standard for many years. Dad shot the mezzanine of the 6 Av/57 St IND station, served by the B train at all times except rush hours, when the newly established K train, that went to the Broadway Brooklyn elevated via the new Grand St connection, was in service. |

Platform level |
Description: |
The new station was quite bright, much more so than the older ones, since it had fluorescent lights, rather than the bulbs in the older stations. This made the stations much more appealing, and probably safer. At the time, 57th St was the terminal for the B train, two of which are seen here. The train on the left has just arrived; the train on the right will be departing shortly for Coney Island via the Grand St connection, Manhattan Bridge, and the West End line. The cars are R 32s, the typical equipment on this line. When the K ran during rush hour, it almost always got R 9s. If anyone remembers the opening to Welcome Back Kotter, it was the West End line that you saw the high school from, as it is elevated south of 39th St/9 Av in Brooklyn. |

Slumbercoach |
Description: |
One of the more economic ways to travel and get a sleeper was the Slumbercoach. They had single and double units, available for only $15 over coach fare for a single when this was taken. The rooms were tiny, but beat the snot out of sleeping in a coach seat. This one is westbound on the Broadway-as if the signal was not a giveaway!! |

CN on CV |
Description: |
Central Vermont was one of CNs US subsidiaries, and sometimes got run through equipment. The power was an on and off affair, sometimes running to Palmer, sometimes to St Albans. The cabooses commonly ran to Palmer, as did this one seen at Belchertown Mass on train 444. Note the "international service" stenciled under the cupola. |

Union station |
Description: |
This station at Palmer Mass was a union station, serving both the Boston & Albany, and Central Vermont. Were looking across Conrails ex B&A Boston Line. In 1986, passenger trains no longer stopped here, though the Boston section of the Lake Shore passed by. A few years hence, the Montrealer would pass on the CV after it was rerouted off the B&M Conn River line due to Guilfords inability to maintain the track to adequate standards for Amtrak. At the time of this photo, there was a restaurant/bar in the building. |
