Thanks for the photographic trip report.

I believe that's for the Conductor to see up and down the train. Something must be blocking his view, either a curve or maybe columns or an elevation change.

I like this photo the best. Very cool.



I wish you hadn't used digital zoom on the following photo (or at all, ever, for that matter). I would have liked to have seen the train a little sharper, with more of the flaming foliage in view.

Thanks Brian. It was taken from the roof deck of the Library of Manhattan college so it was a good distance away.....
Anyway, I did crop it. Here's the original with a bit more foliage..

Cool. Ever take physics there? My bud has been teaching it since 1979 so you don't know him, but I've met many of his senior colleagues in the past..
They have put up a massive parking garage right next to the el - ruins some of the rail fanning lines of sight...

When were you at Penn Station. Me and Rail were there at around 12:30 or so and saw the band as well.

...you can see in the band photo a digital clock that says 1:15. My NJT arrived on schedule at 12:59.

We should arrange an impromptu rendez-vous next time!
