@@user-ge7qp4jq7z Yep an old train that used to run from East Williston to Penn Station #1501.

Maybe because of how big the platform is

I believe it was cut because of how much they are struggling with money the MTA.

@@user-ge7qp4jq7z That’s because there was an old Morning Rush train #1501 I believe that ran from East Williston to Penn Station. The EMU trains can run up on the Oyster Bay Branch until East Williston only because the third rail ends just east of the Station I hope that helps!

Hey man hope you have been doing well I really enjoy watching you’re videos to of the Montauk Trains I really appreciate it thanks!

@@Larry_P I sure have been doing well, thanks so much and no problem!😁

Thanks for watching Malik am glad you enjoyed the video!

@@Larry_P No problem

Thanks for watching Mark!

Yea they are pretty dam loud when they are blown at full blast

@@Larry_P Didn't they used to have K5LA horns? Why did the LIRR replace them with louder horns? Why do they have horns louder than the ones on the M3s, M7s, and M9s? Why couldn't they just used the same horns on the Diesel Locomotives that the EMUs use? The horns on the Current Locomotives are more suitable for use on Intermodel freight trains like CSX.

Back when they were delivered into Service they had these older cast K5LAS that sounded very different than the K5LAS that some of the Locomotives have now. I am not sure they why replaced them with the K5LLS, K5LAS, K5LS, and K5LLAS. I know that the Long Island Railroad back in 2016 decided on Restricting most of their horns on the Dm30ac/De30ac Locomotives and that backfired greatly they got fined a lot of money per each horn that was Restricted they are loud because so people can hear them better cuz the Restricted Horns weren’t loud enough.

@@Larry_P So they go replace the old K5LA horns with the louder K5LLA horns used on many newer freight locomotives. Aren't those horns way louder than the RS2M horns used on the cab cars and EMUs?

From what I heard right is whenever one of the De30ac/Dm30ac locomotives horn something happens to it like it gets damaged, or starts to wear overtime they get replaced with a Brand new K5LLA horn out of the shops because they don’t make the K5LLS anymore

Hey Paul thanks for watching man!

@@Larry_P Happy Saturday night from Palm Beach Florida 😎

Likewise Paul! Sending you my greetings from Glen Cove Long Island on this Sunday Morning

@@Larry_P Thanks Larry! Appreciate you my guy 💯

No problem dude! I appreciate you as well!

Oh wow that is very interesting thank you for sharing you're Story! Yea it is crazy how much the Mineola train station has changed. All of the crossings are now gone expect for the one around the curve heading up to the Oyster Bay branch. Also such a shame that the Nassau tower had to go as well it really symbolized Mineola train station for what it was. I hope to head back to Mineola again sometime in the future I would like to do a Evening Rush there.

Hello there Rob thanks for commenting on the video that is cool that you moved to Pennsylvania I have went on vacation there believe it was Dutch County and I visited the Strasburg Railroad while I was there it was a great experience defiantly a whole different life style than Long Island. Oh and also I went to Dutch Wonderland the amusement park to had a lot of fun on the rides and rode the train that brings you around the park. Yea I am very sad that they had to remove the crossing gates I miss all of the horn action over there but like you said I understand why they had to do it.

Hey Gregory yep they have been running the 7-8 car double engine sets on my branch a lot more since late January I believe but it hasn’t been happening as much as it used to lately. They are most likely moving equipment around or have an equipment shortage or finally what I was thinking is that they need an extra train for #14 on Fridays.

@@Larry_P yeap I guess they will continue to use the equipment then they should have been used it a lot in my opinion they should just use it a lot because those trains with that many cars don't run a lot

@@Larry_P I know I said this before but they should have been started using that much equipment since 2021 or 2019 but back then they didn't use it now they are using it now I guess times do change man If I do come to New York and I see They Using that much equipment then that my Golden Ticket to catch the 8 car sets and 2 local motives or 7 car sets it depends as long as I'm onboard a a train with double engine im good Heck I know the Cannonball Express train gonna run soon next month and everyone gonna catch it I mean I already know it runs from May Threw September I know the schedule of the Cannonball Express yeap 😎

I know right it does not make sense I am not sure why they don’t just put the extra 8 car set on train #44 which is from Penn Station to Speonk instead they only give that train 5 cars. I speculate that they are just moving equipment around or have an equipment shortage or they might need an extra set for train #14 on Fridays

They do sometimes give the train 6 cars and 2 locomotives as well sometimes but not all the time I believe

Yea it depends sometimes it can be 5 and sometimes it can be 6.

Hey Nicco thanks man! Yep decided to head out to Glen Street again and film the usual rush trains and yep that view is really cool of when you film them going pass by your house I hope to see you sometime to Happy Railfanning bro!

Happy to hear it. Yeah it’s a great shot. See you soon bro!

Thanks man Greetings from Glen Cove New York!

@@Larry_P awesome to meet you here today my guy! I'm originally from Manhattan, born and raised. Moved down here to South Florida 5 years ago

Likewise! That is nice to know that you are from Manhattan I hope life is treating you well in South Florida I know that Florida gets a lot of Tropical Storms, and Hurricanes which sucks and it is very hot down there I hear I can not stand the heat lol I like when we get anywhere between 60 degree through 75 degree days over here. Once again thanks for watching the video please stay tuned for more Railfanning videos!

@@Larry_P Yessir I here you, but it's my tropical paradise and I'm lovin it 👌

Yep as long as you love it that is all that matters man!

Yep it stands out from the rest making it very unique

Thanks man!

@@Larry_P Anytime man!

Hey Gregory hope all is well man yea I know right it's wild that they have been running 8 car sets on some Oyster Bay trains lately these past few months this isn't the first time it happened today it has been happening at least once a week for the past few months I have noticed.

For real wow that awesome

Hey Byron that's cool hope you had a nice train ride!

Oh really? That isn’t good.

Yep it sounded very off either a fouled horn or the cold air messing with the horn would be my thought

Yep that is correct!

It's one of my many favorite Interlockings on the LIRR!

That’s cool! Yea I like the curve over there and where the crossing gates are there is still one last crossing at Mineola which is that one you can still go there as I know of!

Hi yea there is third rail at those former crossings at Mineola the whole station got redone and the crossings at Main Street aren’t there any longer

Thanks for watching man! Greetings and Happy Sunday from Long Island!

Lol true for some people who can’t take the horn however for me that’s one of my favorite parts about trains!

Yea my problem is I have sensitive hearing so I wear earplugs

Yea for me I wear wear earplugs I have sensitive hearing

Hey thanks man I appreciate it!

Same here! Most of the stations on the Oyster Bay Branch are very scenic and have a lot of nice spots/angles to film the trains from

Yea it happens all the time when I Railfann cars blow right through the grade crossings as soon as the gates go down and I see people walk under the crossing as well when the gates are down and even sometimes as the train is departing the station

The next stop after Locust Valley is Oyster Bay

@@Larry_P LAST STOP!

Yep that is correct here is a little fun fact after Locust Valley there was another stop before Oyster Bay called Mill Neck however the station has shutdown years ago and is now a post office they still pass through there its very pretty over there

Haha lol yep the leaf crusher is back in action thanks for watching Pensy!

Hey Gregory hope all is well and thanks for watching man! Usually the most common reason they run Double Engines is due to when they have a cab car shortage so they just run a double ended set. Another reason I believe is in the winter they tend to run them in the winter a lot to something that has to do with the cab car as well but I am not so sure.

Thats cool man! Yea I was surprised to see this running on my branch this week.

Wow that is an awesome history to have there am glad you had met lots of people on the Railroad and no problem am very sad to see the old Mineola go to it truly breaks my heart.

Hey man thanks! I am hanging in there like everybody else is trying to stay strong.

Thank you Robert! For sure its nice filming in the rain sometimes it is very relaxing and helps clear the mind thanks for watching! (:

Oh interesting to know as always Andrew keep in touch when you go back out again Railfanning I’d like to see you again at some point

Yep they have been running a lot of Double engine sets on the Oyster Bay branch lately which is always awesome to see!

@@Larry_P I Rode One Of Them

Nice!

Thanks dude! Yep I had a very nice Birthday Greetings from Long Island!

@@Larry_P Glad to hear. Not a problem dude

Thanks! :)

Thanks Nicco! Feels nice to be 21. 😎

Of course. Bet it does 😎

Are you talking about the horn? There was no dog around while I was filming.

@@Larry_P i meant the horn. Lol!

@@rxttwxler Oh lol haha yea the K5LA on 261 sounds unusual because 3 of chimes are facing backwards and two are facing forwards.

Hey man how's it going?! We haven't texted in a while.

@@Larry_P Hey, I sent you a text but I don't think you got it the other day. I'll send another

Oh you did hm that's strange yea send another one over sometimes IMessage is known to do that.

Yep that is right!

Yea I know right I didn’t even realize it until my friend told me about it lol it looks good though for sure.
