New York and Atlantic railfan

[nyafan]

I'm modelling the NYA in nscale. I grew up on Long Island and was looking for a prototype to model. I'm looking for photos of the railway and its track. I's send some pictures of my repainted locos and track plan if someone can instruct me how to get pictures in these posts.

Hi and welcome!

You can post images by using a photo hosting site such as photobucket and then copying and pasting the image code from that site into the text of your post.

Good prototype choice

Google- - NY&A. Searching Long Island Railroad will also help. Many of the buildings, and scenic features along the right of way probably still exist. With the population density of the area, there probably hasn't been a whole lot of " new rail " added to the existing LIRR trackage.
" I grew up on Long Island ".
So did I, Copiague. We also had a summer cottage on Noyack Bay.
