  • Here is my Christmas gift to all of you who watch my videos and support the channel. I know a lot of people have been asking for a part 7, so here it is. My next video might be my vacation video, or the opening of the East Side Access, we'll see.

    If you’re on the E train entering and leaving WTC station you can see unused bellmouths for the proposed IND second system worth street line

    Fun fact: *I* yes, *I* was the one who ripped the sign to reveal the Brown M train at Atlantic Barclays, took me 5 minutes to rip off, in all its glory, they did put some black tape over it nowadays.

    Excellent presentation and research love the map illustrations. Hardly any of coworkers notice anything in the tunnels, tracks. I was always curious and found the subways etc fascinating before I worked for NYCTA. Whenever I worked in an area I took the chance to explore. I salute you for the great work you do👍🏾💯

    I don’t if they’re still there now, but in late 2019/early 2020 I came across a few Brown M train signs at the 4th Ave-9th St station. There were some in a sealed off part of the station on the floors (they were behind bars). But there was at least one sign with the Brown M that I remember hanging from the ceiling above the stairs connecting the 4th Avenue Line and the Culver Line.

    You can actually occasionally hear a train in the lower level of the 63rd St tunnel at the Roosevelt Island station, at least at the western end of the platform

    Nice work man. In one of your videos you point out that on the southbound platform of the #6 train at Astor place, there is an entrance to what used to be K-mart, That building at 770 Broadway was once a famous department store called Wanamaker, for which that building was built. I walked through that entrance many times. There's another famous entrance like that in Brooklyn, now defunct but the remnants are still there. On the Southbound platform of the #2 train at Hoyt street in Brooklyn, there was an entrance to another famous department store called Abraham & Strauss. We shopped there all the time when I was a kid as it was one of the staples of downtown Brooklyn for 100 years. It was a very elegant store but very accessible. We spent all day there. The owner Isador Straus died on the Titanic just like Astor. Congratulations on your videos!

    The middle tracks at 2nd Ave were capped off at the east end of the platform a while back so the further east provisions can no longer be used for storage.

    Your videos are very thorough and interesting. One note, if you could talk a little slower, it would easier to understand what you say. I just feel like I’m not getting all the information, but keep up the good work!

    As a kid I remember when the Q train terminated at 21st st and was orange. Also on the 42nd street shuttle you can see traces of the old platform you mentioned on the ceiling.
