After looking through my Flickr account at the people I follow, one of the guys I follow took several photos of the ROW on the Ronkonkoma Branch after the second track was laid. Here's what is happening now:
1.) Ballast is now being poured to cover the ties.
2.) The rest of the trees and brush have been cleared in between Central Islip and Brentwood leading into Brentwood station. Shouldn't be an issue to lay the track.
3.) Work is continuing on clearing foliage leading into the old Deer Park station.
4.) Wyandanch now has a clear path in the vicinity of the station.
5.) Brush and foliage is being cleared in between Wyandanch to Pinelawn.
6.) Finally, they have erected a safety fence in between Long Island Avenue and the track in between Pinelawn station to the Little East Neck Road crossing, with of course people telling me that they are grading the Earth. The fence is erected in between the LI Avenue and the power lines.
7.) The section from Wellwood Avenue to where the East end of FARM Interlocking has yet to see any evidence.
