The Coach Built Specifically for the LIRR: The C3 Bi-Level

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

How LIRR came to be: The LIRR was chartered back in 1834 to provide a daily service between New York and Boston via a ferry connection between its Greenport terminal on Long Island's North Fork and Stonington, CT. This service was superseded in 1849 by the land route through Connecticut that became part of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad. The LIRR refocused its attentions towards serving Long Island. In the 1870s, railroad president Conrad Poppenhusen and his successor, Austin Corbin acquired all the railroads and consolidated them into the LIRR. Electric operation on the LIRR began in 1905. The reason both the LIRR and MNR use third rail is because when it was built the technology for DC third rail was more heavily used, and better understood. AC overhead lines were a newer technology. Plus third rail is cheaper to build, since it doesn’t require supports for the lines. LIRR was once owned by the Penn RR and they used third rail for the tunnels entering Manhattan. Penn wouldn't do catenary lines until the 1930s.

[@josefstalin9068]

Something I’d like to point out: The LIRR actually does reach 80mph in service, including on the C3s, but these Montauk services often follow behind a local train to Babylon with nowhere to really overtake, hence the reduced speed to 60 to avoid catching up and going slow. If you get one of the C3 from Port Jeff or Oyster Bay to Jamaica you’ll actually get up to top speed more easily.

[@LonestarTrips]

Interesting, thank you all knowledgeable leader. My guess is we were ironically stuck behind the local train to Babylon that we caught to Jamaica to begin with.

[@johnnyculkin4432]

Diesel is regulated at 65 mph, they don't get up to 80.

[@danielh.9310]

They USED to hit 80mph but now the trains make every stop in all 5 boroughs plus stops like QV, elmont, bellrose, floral park are in spitting distance of each other. Makes the ride sooooooo slow!

[@stephenkeever6029]

That is a big improvement for Penn station! It was always a depressing place to travel through. It always brought back the memory of the architectural review of when it was built. At the time the reviewer said one enters Philadelphia’s 30th St. station like a king into the kingdom whereas Penn station one crawls out of a hole like a rat from a sewer. I’m probably paraphrasing a little bit because it was years ago that I read that but it always stuck in my mind.

[@de-fault_de-fault]

The quote was actually comparing Penn Station‘s dramatic original appearance before it was renovated in the 1960s (making way for MSG) vs. how it looked when only the concourses and platforms remained, squeezed under low ceilings.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Great to see the automated announcements working because they don't always do on the C3s! The Montauk Branch is my local LIRR branch! It's a shame you didn't get to explore the true Montauk Branch as it doesn't truly begin until after Babylon where electrification ends. Montauk Branch trains doesn't always take the Babylon Branch to get to Babylon! They sometimes use the Central Branch, meaning they follow the Main Line towards Hicksville, then follow the Ronkonkoma Branch towards Bethpage, but instead of turning towards Farmingdale like Ronkonkoma trains do, they keep going south towards Babylon. Electric trains can't use the whole Central Branch because the Central Branch past Bethpage is non-electrified. The reason they're bi-levels compared to the rest of the LIRR fleet is because the platforms on the diesel branches are shorter, and so using bi-levels will help get the capacity they want while making up for the shorter platforms. There are DE30ACs and DM30ACs, with the difference being DM30ACs can turn on electric mode to enter Penn Station. Because of the fact the DM30ACs are limited, direct service to Penn Station from the diesel branches only happen during peak hours. The locomotives will be replaced with a design based on the diesel-electric Siemens Charger, just like the Metro-North diesel fleet.

I live off the Montauk branch and commute on these every week, as well as ride them frequently whenever going into the city. They are definitely showing their age but are certainly still on the more comfortable end of LIRR's fleet and when commuting over an hour, that really makes a difference.

Very informative. Hadn’t seen the luggage racks on the lower level, perhaps a new addition to the fleet. Also interesting to point out that your consist had 2 cab cars (anything that starts with #5XXX, in your case it was cars #5019 and #5006), normally they run with one cab car but perhaps there was a shortage of equipment and maybe #5019 had broken controls so they hooked it up in service to another set of cars they had laying around.

[@WeMissRevis]

Just a small note, the C3's don't operate on the Ronkonkoma line as show on the map at 1:54. The whole line is technically between the city and Greenport, but there is no through service at Ronkonkoma. All service west of Ronkonkoma is operate by electric trains, while all service east is operated by the C3's and locomotives. To get from Greenport and intermediate stops to points west of Ronkonkoma, one must transfer there.

I made two videos before the triple track project began one from Babylon to Jamacia and the other from Jamacia to Babylon. Both on the central Branch on the diesel trains.

[@michaelscott7706]

I remember when they were new. They had automatic announcements. Very smooth ride compared to the coaches they replaced.

[@mdeange3]

I'm adding to @adamaviation6236. As he said is correct. "kuh-muh" is the sound said quickly. Ronkonkoma is not pronounced Ron - Kon - Koma. Another way to think of the phrase "Konking" your horn, and take off the 'ing" ending sound, and pronounce: Ronkonkoma. Ronkonkuh-muh. Sound good? Thanks for the train details. A transfer to The Oyster Bay branch is also made at Mineola. Phonetically pronounced: Mini-ola. The phrasing sound said quickly as one: Mineola. I believe the Diesels loop around from Hunters Point. An example the engine reverses butt-out on return trips. So the tail end car with the bumpers in the last shot is what you see moving forward. So that returns butt-out. I think Double-headed DM's are operated during summer service to and from Montauk Point.

Note: the following lirr branch lines with the c3 double decker coaches and diesel engine locomotives are Oyster Bay branch, Port Jefferson branch (east of Huntington), Ronkonkoma branch (scoots to Greenport) and Montauk branch. The c3 double decker coaches can also be used in New York Pennsylvania Station by the help of duel power mode diesel engines which allows direct service from midtown Manhattan to non electric areas in long island. Fun fact that the LIRR c3 double decker couches look visually identical to NJ transit bombardier bi level double decker couches by the looks on the blue line in the middle of the car.

The LIRR diesel fleet is unique but it’s showing its age. I know the MTA is in the market for a replacement to the DE30ACs but ideally more of it should be electric by now.

Are you sure track speeds limit the train to 60? I thought it was 80. I ride that line very often, usually on m7 car train. When I can I sit in the jump seat near the conductor chair, which sometimes allows visual access to a speedometer. At our fastest they typically top out in the high 70s.

Surprised to see you on my home rail road! The storage racks in the middle of the lower level are not a standard feature of the toilet trailer cars. I've literally never seen that on any train before. However, the storage racks at the ends of the car are normally divided in two with a shelf instead of just one big bin like the one you saw. Also like others have mentioned, the seats aren't actually raised up, but rather the aisle is lowered to allow more headroom when walking through the car. On the lower level, the aisle sits in between the bogies. so the seats can't be made any lower. There's no more vertical space because the cars are designed to fit into the East River Tubes. The luggage racks above the seats aren't big but they're designed for commuters who are likely to carry briefcases and not large bags.

When these were introduced, they replaced terribly outdated Pullman coaches, which had been in use since the 1950s. Although not perfect, they were a huge leap forward.

The reason the C-3’s have their awkward design was to make clearance in the East River tunnels of being hauled by a dual mode to Penn. They needed to get creative to shave an inch here and an inch there. The overhead racks are for commuters who only need to put a brief case up there.
