LI 211
Title:  LI 211
Description:  LI 211 climbs the grade behind Syosset High School with an off-peak consist, very likely a Smithtown turn. The first two cars are the familiar P54 ping pong coaches. The third through fifth cars appear to be P71 or P71a coaches obtained from the MEC in 1962. Cars six and seven look like ex-D&H P69 coaches, and on the bottom is a ping pong combine. LI 211 was later D&H 211, R&S 41, DL/VLIX 41. Date of photo approximate.
