I was lazy in posting, but here are 2 shots from David Whites Lane Crossing in Southampton of Cannonball Train 2798:

The rain made a nice distorted effect as you see DM30AC 508 on the rear after crossing CR39 just east of my vantage shot!

Anyways, from Friday, here's 1 shot of each branch:

 

Sayville on the Montauk of Train 2798 with a familiar face at the throttle:

Ocean Avenue in Ronkonkoma of a "Grandpa" M3 operating as Train 2062:

And St. James on the Port Jeff Branch of Train 658 running 37 minutes late due to another train causing congestion (Train 660 was actually running ahead of him):

After a little hiatus, here's 3 more from Pinelawn Friday (10/12):

These Trains were running at 80 MPH when I took them, and trust me, it takes right settings and good eye to get the right shots. Trust me, the last photo which was Train 2058 was taken behind the fence and on the station side of the crossing with my Tamron 70-300 VR lens with my Canon EOS Rebel T4i!
