Taking the curve  Contributor's Pick!       
After leaving the Main Line, the Oyster Bay branch takes a sharp curve to head north, as this train is doing, about to cross first Willis Av then 2nd St. We see some Mineola landmarks in this shot: Nassau tower, behind the second car, which controls the junction as well as a set of crossovers west of the station; to the tower's left, the power house, now abandoned, for the electrification.
