After 19 years of searching, I finally found a websites and photos of someones model train layout depicting my favorite Long Island Railroad location, the Morris Park Shops in Queens NY with its old coaling tower and Orange/Gray C-420s etc.
Unfortunately, HO and Z scales but also shows Port Jefferson and Oyster Bay branches!

Vince, the Trains are Fun website is run by Steve Lynch. Of course I have visited Steve's website quite a bit. Dave Keller, a LIRR historian wrote two books with Steve Lynch. Check this link out, it has LOTS of pictures and the two books I mentioned. sbiii.com/d-keller/d-keller.html
