The diesel powered EMD built GP locomotive # 2064 belonging to the Adirondack railroad was awaiting its duty to pull the 4 car load to the Saramac rail union depot located at a distance of around 28 miles. The railroad utilizes the services of two locos to serve its passengers. The other one is a red colored one # 4243 resting on the side lines and is also a GP class diesel driven one. The two small pictures shows the loco from the long-hood and the short-hood end. | |||

The left side picture over looks the Lake placid station in the far background. The right side one is a typical forest landscape that makes up the Adirondack forests. |  |
