Title:
Old and new
Description:
A couple of MP 54 museum cars had been painted by a group on the Island, and they had prevailed on the LIRR to store them. For a time in 1977, they were at Port Washington, pushed back into one of the storage tracks there. Since the LIRR needed all the capacity they had there, the regular cars were put into the same track, giving us this odd juxtaposition. It was not the first time I had seen such a combination, though. In the early years of the M 1s, there were frequent f`ilures, and it was not unheard of for a train of MP 54s or MP 72s to be coupled to a disabled train of M 1s to push them to destination.
