MP pair |
| Description: |
A visit to family in New York yielded me an afternoon of train watching out at Mineola, a nice break from the drama of too many people in one house. I saw several double headers that day, including this pair of MP 15s on an Oyster Bay train. |

Oyster Bay rush hour train |

Most of the Oyster Bay trains got a locomotive on the east end and a power car on the west end. There was one train that ran with electric heat coaches that got a pair of MP 15s. Here it is passing Mineola. |

Wrong end east |
| Description: |
Typically, the push pull sets on Long Island ran with the power pack on the west end. This one seems to have gotten turned around, as the MP 15 providing train power is facing east, with GP 38-2 272 on the west end. The Stony Brook station is one of the more attractive stations on the island, surprisingly small considering it's adjacent to the SUNY Stony Brook campus, out of the photo to the left. |

MP 15 in blue and yellow |
| Description: |
In the late 1980s, LIRR decided to change their image from the blue and white that had been the scheme since the early 70s, back to the blue and yellow MTA colors they used when the MTA originally took over in the 1960s. Heres one of the MP 15s in the new paint. Note the first car of the train had the headlight plated over, a sign it was a former MU car converted to diesel service. |

New paint |
| Description: |
One of the new developments since I moved away from NY City five years earlier was a retro paint scheme, somewhat similar to the New York State colors used from the mid 60s, when MTA took over the railroad from the Pennsy, til 1977 when the blue and white scheme was adopted. Here, MP 15 161 rolls away from the camera in the new scheme on its way to Oyster Bay. |
