Remember your dates!!!!!

The Port Wash. branch opened in 1898.  Seven (7) years before the LIRR's first electrification between FBA and Rock Park.

So . . .. steam ran on the PW branch.

And . . yes . . . there was a turntable there.

Ditto for the Whitestone branch.  Steam ran there in the early years before the days of MUs and there was a turntable AND enginehouse as well at Whitestone Landing.

Port Jefferson once had a turntable, then a wye. The TT came out in 1922, the same year the wye was installed.

Wading River had a wye.  

Wye's were also located at Pinelawn, Wyandanch, Islip, Speonk, Ronkonkoma, old East New York, Manhattan Beach Jct., Parkville, Amagansett, Hicksville, old Dunton, old Valley Stream, Hammels (both old and new), Mineola, Long Beach (both old and new), and a double wye at Hempstead Crossing/Country Life Press.

Eastport and Manorville both had wyes.

Montauk had a wye as did Babylon.

Even distant Point Lookout had a wye out in the middle of the barren, sandy beach.

Other areas with turntables:

Patchogue, Locust Valley (when it was the end of the line), Oyster Bay and Greenport.

LIC had several turntables as did old Jamaica before the elimination. Morris Park Shops, Richmond Hill Storage yard AFTER the elimination.

Old Bethpage had a turntable, too for the CRR of LI trains.

Manhattan Beach, old Far Rockaway, old Hempstead, old Flatbush Avenue and Sag Harbor all had turntables.
