Still the same
Title:  Still the same
Description:  Not much had changed on the Island in the five years since I last lived there, though that would change dramatically in the next few years, with new cars and power. On this warm night in May 1993, it was just another night like most of the last 15 years as the last Oyster Bay train of the evening made its Mineola stop.

4012 from a different perch
Title:  4012 from a different perch
Description:  I typically would go to Bellerose on Sunday, since it had the best viewing platform for trains on the Main Line. Occasionally Id go elsewhere, such as todays stop at Queens Village. We see 4012 behind the usual pair of GP 38s passing the Queens Village team yard west of the station. It will blow through the station, then bounce through Queens interlocking on its way to Hicksville and Montauk via the Central Branch.
