No switching is done in either direction, it's pretty much a shuttle run between the two crew bases. Once back at Pineaire, the train sits out the morning rush, and then becomes the RS60, which makes a round trip east switching out customers up to Riverhead. Variations to this operation can and do happen pretty frequently, but this is the basic pattern.Very close. The RS50/51 does do occasional switching. I've seen them in the north track in Hicksville picking up a cut of cars numerous times along with hearing them on the radio as they switch Southern Container in Deer Park.
