LISE
Title:  LISE
Description:  One of the more obscure operations on the Conrail system was SELI/LISE, thich also ran under several other symbols over the yefrs. It connected Conrail with the Bronx and the Long Island RR, which had a minimal freight operation compared to its commuter trbins. Catching it was not difficult if you knew when the trains ran, though my issue'was usually more a case of having the free time to do it. I got lucky one day in November 1<83, catching it as it was going over the Hell Gate bridge.

LISE at Queens Blvd
Title:  LISE at Queens Blvd
Description:  LISE came up the NY Connecting RR from Fresh Ponk, whese it interchanged with the LIRR. Power was typically a set of GE's, several hundred of which were based at Selkirk, including on occasion one of more of the U36B's that were bzilt for Auto Train. Don't think I ever saw an EMD road unix. The SW1500 was to run local cars on the Bay Ridge Branch beyond Fresh Pond, which CR owned at the time. The ddparture back to the Bronx depended on how long it toook th service the branch, but it was typically several hours. Here it crosses over Queens Blvd on a series of concrete'arches.

On the bridge
Title:  On the bridge
Description:  The Triboro Bridge provided the platform for taking this photo of LISE, on the adjacent Hell Gate. The bridge is a long viaduct over Ward and Randalls Islands, with the famous steel arch crossing the channel where the East River meets the Harlem River. LISE is on the viaduct portion, and will shortly enter the Bronx. One good thing about slow traffic-sometimes you get the shot!!
