Sorry about not getting back to you right away.

On the LIRR I think they called it a "power pack". Its a depowered F unit tacked on to operate push pull.

They are all gone now. I may have a list of the units and where they came from. They also used some Alco FAs. LIRR had some unusual power on those commuter trains. I'll try to post some other shots if I get a chance.
