FA old style |
| Description: |
The LIRR was in paint scheme transition in the late 1970s. They had received their new GP 38s-their first EMDs-in a blue and white scheme inspired by the Milwaukee Roads bicentennial unit. Other power was starting to make the transition, but the new scheme had not made it onto everything yet, and the FAs were still in the gray with blue stripe at the window band level. One of them is going away under the signals on an Oyster Bay train, hanging onto its old paint just a little longer. |

The race is on |
| Description: |
It wont turn out to be much of a contest. The diesel train on the right is rolling along at track speed, and will enter Queens interlocking after passing my position on the platform, moving over to Main Line track 2 for the trip to Hicksville, then on to Ronkonkoma. The train of M 1s is slowing for the stop at Queens Village.To the left of the trains is one of the more unusual parts of the LIRR, the Queens Village Team Track. It was a small yard with a couple of tracks and a crane for use by receivers who did not have their own siding. By the late 70s, most of the cars there were on various LIRR mow assignments. I dont think I ever saw a revenue car there. |

Oyster Bay train east |
| Description: |
A train bound for Oyster Bay rolls east through Queens Village. Oyster Bay trains tended to be short, since some of their stations were convenient to others on the Port Washington Branch, or to Mineola with a short drive, so patronage was lighter than other branches. |

Surfs up!! |
| Description: |
Long Island for a time painted their GP38s witha red stripe. The inspiration was their Bicentennial unit, 252, which was painted that way when it arrived in 1976. Eventually all the big road power got the treatment, which only lasted a few years. |

4012 from a different perch |
| Description: |
I typically would go to Bellerose on Sunday, since it had the best viewing platform for trains on the Main Line. Occasionally Id go elsewhere, such as todays stop at Queens Village. We see 4012 behind the usual pair of GP 38s passing the Queens Village team yard west of the station. It will blow through the station, then bounce through Queens interlocking on its way to Hicksville and Montauk via the Central Branch. |

An FA brings up the rear of this Oyster Bay train rolling east under the PRR position lights at Queens Village. It will cross over in the interlocking to take Main Line track 2 east to Mineola. Queens tower is behind the second car in the train. The large building at left is Queens Village theater, a classic old movie house that at the time was showing mostly adult films and some pay per view events. |

Pushing past the team tracks |
| Description: |
An Oyster Bay train pushes through Queens Village on its way to Jamaica. At left is the Queens Village team yard, an anachronism on most railroads by this time, but a place where cars could be unloaded by consignees without a siding of their own, not unusual in the city. By this time it was used mostly by MOW crews, but still got revenue cars. |

Big picture |
| Description: |
This shot of a westbound Oyster Bay train shows the facilities at Queens Village. The station is along Jamaica Av, which parallels just to the north. At the east end of the station is a signal bridge. It marks the west limit of Queens interlocking, which is controlled by Queens tower, seen to the right of the train. Also in Queens interlocking limits is the connection to the now out of service Belmont Spur, which leaves the Main Line here to reach Belmont Racetrack, home of the Belmont Stakes, a triple crown event. |

Oyster Bay train with MP 15s |
| Description: |
Oyster Bay trains were small consists most of the day, due to the relatively light patronage on the branch. As a result, trains often ran with MP 15s fore and aft, such as this westbound passing under the signals at Queens. The tower is seen under the second signal from the left, beyond the train. |
