Most seem to be missing the most intriguing part of that photo....how the hell did you manage to get in that spot? Are you a RR employee? Looks like he's approaching the Sunnyside Yard? Great juxtopositioning !!

Answer to Marlowe-there's a grade crossing there, and a street that runs along the tracks for a short distance. It's not as off limits as it looks. The train will bear off to the right of the photo to reach Hunterspoint Av, which is adjacent to the Sunnyside yard at it's west end, near F Tower, which controls moves out of the yard to the East River tunnels.
