I haven't been on all of the branches. Which one is this? Long Beach?

kuzzel540,

I cannot see the image you posted. But if you are referring to one in Amtrak Phil’s post. They are from Jamaica and Mineola. He also has a lot from Long Beach but I do not see them on that sight.

Sometimes the image doesn't load up.

I uploaded the pic onto imageshack and edited my post.

It appears to be at "LEAD" tower and bridge. Long Beach branch. Reynold's Channel.

Got that right Dave. Now I can see the photo. It is in fact lead bridge. This shot looks to have been shot from the shore line or a boat?

I love the reflection of the headlights off of the water.

As a comparision (before and after) look at the photo at the top of page 69 in my first book, "The Long Island Rail Road: 1925-1975."

It shows a similar view when the M1s were new (April, 1969) and the bridge wasn't!
