Railfanning Mineola, Long Island 1/30/2015 (Part 1)

This video was shot at several crossings located in Mneloa, Long Island, New York

After filming New Hyde Park, me and Adam and Alex Vasic headed over to Mineloa to catch the evening rush hour.

I gotta say, if you want train action, this is place to be. There are a total of 5 railroad crossings in this area, and two lines, The LIRR main line, and the LIRR Oyster Bay branch. The main line gets more traffic then the Oyster Bay branch, but this is still an awesome place to film trains.
