The old LIRR passenger car that is shown is going to be used as the
railcar that will transport the tour group from Fresh Pond Yard to the
65th Street Yard in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. It's an old railcar, but
it still does the job.

A nice GP38-2
locomotive will be used to pull the railfan's passenger car and caboose.
Another locomotive will be used for the reverse trip back to Fresh Pond.
Two
locomotives are parked next to the Montauk Branch ROW.
The
locomotive is pulling in to Fresh Pond to pick-up the passengers.
This spur will be used to link up with the Bay Ridge Branch.
