The days of old school LIRR mentality are long gone.
In the day, all of their equiptment was able to run together in one train. I remember seeing a train of MP72 & 75s MP54 clestory & arched roofed & the Juinata built double deckers all together in one 12 car train.

They specifically ordered from Pullman that their MP-75 Worlds Fair "Zip Cars" be able to MU with 45/50 year old equiptment. That type of flexibility made for interesting railfanning & more available cars per train.

Railroad suits just don't think that way anymore.
