LI 218         
LI 218 works upgrade between Cold Spring Harbor and Syosset near the control point of Amott with a sixteen-car inbound rush hour commuter train. This was the ruling grade on the Port Jefferson branch, and would find the Alcos working all out to make 25 mph or so with a train of this size. Date of photo approximate.
