Another reason to go to the Greenport museum.

A couple of weeks ago I gave them a 10 foot long blueprint of a map of the LIRR dated 1925. It shows all tracks stations, sidings, and spurs. Its purpose was to show bus routes; it is remarkable that there were bus routes in Nassau and Suffolk that far back.

Someone gave it to me in 1990 from his attic. He was not a railfan, but knew I was. I figured the public should be able to see it. And I rather it go to the museum than an individual on ebay where no one else would see it. Give the museum a visit. They deserve our support.

I forgot to say the map has many roads, some incorrectly named, plus water bodies. LI Motor Parkway. The Northern State Pkwy in Huntington. The LI State Park Commission was only a year old. And the parkway was actually constructed 20 years later.

I think the New York and North Shore Traction company was still around then. I think that the Halesite-Amityville trolley was replaced by buses by then though.

I'd love to see this map. Next chance I get I'm comming out there.
