I lived in Woodside from 1969 until 1989 when me and wife moved cross country to Washington State. Woodside was a good neighborhood when I lived there.
6:34 cool that a LIRR engineer watches your channel. Can't say I am surprised. 15:10 Thanks for that info about the Rockaway Club with MP15. Never knew locomotives ran on the Far Rockaway Branch. Not sure if I ever told you this, but when I lived in NY, Rockaway is where I lived. Sure do miss the beach. Wish the LIRR kept the Rockaway Park Branch. Would have loved to see M1 and M3 trains running out there.
In case the near track is out of service. They lay them across the unused track so trains on the next track canstop and board and unload passengers on those gang planks.
Considering how many cars these trains all have, how full are they? Just imagine how much worse traffic would be on the LIE and the parkways if the LIRR didn't exist! (And here in Atlanta, how many commuter trains do we have? ZERO!)
As a student of the Reading Commuter operation in the 1960-80s, I have a hard time understanding these trains being made up of SO many cars. They are horribly empty. The Reading would send trains out with 2 cars routinely, and even one Budd car for economy.
I never realized how busy the Woodside LIRR station is. So much action and variety! Thanks for sharing.
Flying Yankee is our guy 👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥

Washington state has beautiful scenery.
I miss riding the LIRR to Brentwood. Gotta love flying Yankee 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Ilove it
So cool to see the Summer Montauk trains again including the cannonball!!!
I'm so sorry for you
Wow!! Woodside is the busiest train station on the LIRR at rush hour. And the nbr 7 subway is overhead. Thanks Tim😀💚
I’d like to think only Jamaica rivals it.
I'm so sorry for you
I'm so sorry for you
Love you american states United ❤️🇺🇲🙏🏿🎉

God bless you sir
my old stomping grounds. loved all the trains. hope you enjoyed that meal and pint and Donovan's.
I did!
that m7 operator waving at you was sick much respect
Hicksville - Penn Station, and I always pass through here during rush hour traffic on the LIRR.
Awesome video and footage!

It was an MP54 mu car. The video cut off the 54 part
@@3985uprr Ah, ok. Thanks.
Great job and I love it
9:56 what an interesting sound that motors are making
Hi , The Rockaway Club car was an MP54 and was 1677
The cannonball train is on the railway today it has the engines 502 and 505
seems as if Meatball Man changes jobs a lot. he used to do 664 i remember that, I'd hear him mostly Mondays and Tuesdays.
He’s back diesels. He worked 76 today
My favorite LIRR station!
Nice video
Summer trains are back!!! Memorial Day Weekend!!!
Full pre-pandemic schedule 😀😀😀
21:07, THERES ME!!! OMGGGGGGGGGG, i saw you filming lol
Long live M3s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
28:52 M7 echo.
Tim did you ride the new Subway cars? I think the A train have them
The R211 is on the (A) line.
7:32 MOTOR SOUND
21:10 good ole M3
First!
On another note, can't wait to see what trains are in this video.
Is there any decent view of all of this from the subway platform overhead?
Pretty good
Train 14 has the diesels in electric mode. Normally I thought they put them in diesel mode as soon as they got out of the tunnel.
Soon after tunnel they switched
What are those platforms used for?
In case the near track is out of service. They lay them across the unused track so trains on the next track canstop and board and unload passengers on those gang planks.
2:49 2LIRR AND MTA TRAIN
what is the whining sound that these trains make?
Believe it is the traction motors. The M7 (train with the black on front with the yellow line) sounds the best to me.
Do we see Memorial Day Friday trains?
Later. Stay tuned
Now hold up what is the station called Ronkonkoma
3:34 i love train sound
Great video... which App do you use to track the trains? traintime?
Yes plus tips from other fans. Others from experience
Woodside is very busy
3:40
0:29 WAIT MTA TRAIN AND LIRR
Or metro north Hudson line
Why do they run the diesel engines when in electric territory?
They go to diesel territory destinations
Considering how many cars these trains all have, how full are they? Just imagine how much worse traffic would be on the LIE and the parkways if the LIRR didn't exist! (And here in Atlanta, how many commuter trains do we have? ZERO!)
Some are jam packed
The Rocket never has M9s
It did one day this week
It did a week or two ago also
@@3985uprr Oh man i missed riding it

They are quite crowded actually. They had to lengthen trains because the shorter trains were loaded with standees
Interesting. SEPTA just reported that ridership is still 54% below pre pandemic levels.
