Posted by Express Rider on Sun Jul 15 20:23:47 2018, in response to Photos of 1939 WORLD FAIR LIRR STATION, posted by Avid Reader on Sun Jul 15 12:48:35 2018. Again, thanks so much for finding these great photos and posting them.My Dad and a friend (both from upstate NY) took the LIRR to this station for the WF, since they weren't completely familiar with the entire IND network. (From Middletown, he and his friends would take the Erie > H&M to Hudson Terminal > the IND uptown to the midtown area during the mid 1930s). The MP-41 in the foreground of the second photo foreground, was used as a service casr for the LIRR WF station (re: "service car - I can't describe it more specifically. I was told it's status once, but don't remember whether it was used as a crew car or in work service at this station.) I bought a photo - an overhead view looking directly down on this car from Ron Ziel. It was layed up on one of the outer tracks. Maybe the northernmost westbound track? I can get to this photo if it's in my LIRR folder in my filing cabainet rather than packed away in some box in the "deep space nine/ unexplored Carlsbad Caverns area" of my storage unit. Would I be able to scan it into some kind of viewable doc. (by converting it or some other option) at my public library and somehow get it onto Subchat? I Googled images on line to see if somehow maybe it has been posted to the web. I was only able to find one more WF image of it - see the URL below. Could someone embed this and get the photo onto subchat? If so thanks in advance. https://www.antiquesnavigator.com/archive/2016/05/08/182115283533.jpg |
