LIRR H16-44 #1504
Title:  LIRR H16-44 #1504
Description:  Traditional shot of the conductor giving the engineer hand signals. Built in October of 1951, this Fairbanks-Morse unit was designated a class FGP-16msc ((F= Fairbanks Morse, GP= General Purpose, 16=1600HP, M= MU, S= Steam Generator, C= Speed Control) and used primarily for passenger service most of its life. Date is approximate. No photographer listed but possibly could be one of John Krause's LIRR photos. Thanks to Mke Woodruff's help (see comment below), the location and a better date approximation have been set for the photo. Thanks, Mike!
