A rare, quiet moment at "Jay" interlocking, looking west from the platform at MTA Long Island Rail Road's Jamaica (Queens) NY station. May, 2008
It sounds like LIRR did a lot of work on these turnouts about the time Mark took the photo.

It’s cold, which means it’s time to set the switches on fire to keep one of the USA’s busiest interlockings running, with bonus M7 trains in the background. 
Taken this morning (2/17/24) at Jay Interlocking in Jamaica, NY, USA.
