Thanks for posting this great video! The West End line has been featured in many movies. Bay 50th station, the first stop out of Coney Island, was where the beginning of the famous chase scene from The French Connection started (and was filmed). Actor Gene Hackman (who played Detective Popeye Doyle), commandeers a car below the station and chases the Manhattan bound train (played by a R-42 mistakenly with "N" signage in the front) down toward 25th Avenue station and ultimately along 86th Street. Doyle lives in the Marlboro Projects, which you can see as the train leaves Bay 50th Street. Also, the beginning of "Saturday Night Fever" (John Travolta walking with the paint can) was filmed further down 86th Street, past Bay Parkway (I think by the 20th Avenue station) and the opening credits of "Welcome Back Kotter) also feature the West End and New Utrecht HIgh School.
Outstanding! I'm a homesick New Yorker so this actually made me feel better. Perfect positioning, would love some 7 trains both directions. Looking forward to supporting your channel, thank you!
Another great run taking advantage of the reroutes for some nice rare footage. Thank you.
That train was FLYING!!!
I like this service pattern! The Sea Beach Line and the West End Line both have three usable tracks but no regular express service. They both terminate at Coney Island, and they meet back together on the 4th Avenue Line. So why not run express trains outbound on the center track of the Sea Beach Line and inbound on the center track of the West End Line? The two center tracks combine to form a Q Express service that can run all day. This also allows higher frequencies on the express tracks of the Broadway Line by sending more trains to the Second Avenue Line. Instead of running select N and W trains to the Second Avenue Line because the 60th Street Tunnel is at capacity, run more Q trains like this.
If they continue to build housing on Coney Island they're going to have to do something. 1 hour + to midtown is unacceptable.
12:48 I see they fixed the signal (D4 565). I was on the Transit Museum Coney Island Fan Trip on July 10th (riding R1-9's and AB Standards) and we made a bonus trip from Stillwell Ave to 9th Ave and the 37th St Yard and back, from Track 2 (while the N was terminating at King's Hwy that weekend).
That signal was busted in red, even with the next two signals showing green and even after radioing the control tower to no avail, the superintendent(?) on board with us had to climb down and *clip the trip arm so the Museum Train could pass, in both directions.* I was just amazed at the "professional communication" between the motormen and supervisors on board and control center via radio.

Shouldn't 17:55 be trackways to "Demolished portion of BMT 5th Ave EL" since the Culver line is in the opposite direction?
@@jimneutron157 You are correct! I am updating it now.
Back in the early 60’s before the West End/Sea Beach approach to Coney Island was completely rebuilt it was a interesting complex of slip switches.
Always look forward to your videos...good seeing my old high school,John Dewey at bay 50th street
If only the school wasn't going under renovations right now 😕
Oh wow...I haven't been there since I graduated in 1995...that's when the B was running on that line
I was hoping that you would catch this!!!! I wasn’t in NY last weekend!!!
Really enjoyed your awesome video!
I was in NYC last week for my 44th birthday and my very first birthday there since 1988. Man I enjoy taking the Q train and I noticed that the Q train has it service change during that time running via the N line. Can't wait to come back to NYC again
Nice job, friend!!!
Amazing video. Thank you Morgan, from Milano, Italia.
No problemo 😀💯
Awesome video high spped line on theQ
I enjoyed the ride with you
An almighty R46👌🏼
Awesome vid! I would've enjoyed seeing the reroute up to Canal Street or until it switched onto its regular route.
I'm from Brazil I'm new to the channel
Welcome aboard 🤝
2:16 broo i really thought that was a lemon train
From far away it kinda actually does look like it
😂
Eye-level view is much better.
impossible to do that now since there's no more front windows
@@morganlimes Pity... So, you attach the camera outside to what? It would be interesting to show that on a post.
@@-dimitris I use a reacher and place the camera on the floor at the front of the train
👍 Thank For The Video. Very Nice. By The Way Can You Do The Full Video On The A,C And E If You Have A Chance. Thanks.
Thanks man! Siemens E might be next. BTW I always see you on every dj hammers video lol
Please do more videos of running through all tracks of DeKalb Ave station and junctions ???? Aarre Peltomaa
This is just another in a long line of great videos and I very much hope you continue to make these things. I THINK it might be a little better if the camera were situated higher up. If it were at eye level it would very much make the trip look like those fantastic RFW's that we used to have. It was so great doing this run at the front of a Brooklyn Standard complete with the open window. Any chance of doing one of these at eye level?
Awesome! Really cool watching a POV of the West End line stretch that's what I've been looking forward to. The French Connection always comes to mind when it comes to that stretch lol, especially on the express track.
Aside from the Brighton line, West End is one of my favorites in Brooklyn.
If it's possible maybe, could you get a round trip of the weekend Shuttle on the Brighton btw Prospect Pk & Coney Island?
West end express is really cool indeed and also Sure I'll try doing the brighton shuttle this weekend 💯
@@morganlimes 🙏
Your subway videos are one of the clearest and brightest I've seen. Two questions... Don't the engineers have issues with you opening the front door and placing a camera on the end platform? What equipment are you using? How do you eliminate the wind noise? (okay, three questions...)
Thanks 😀 The operators or conductors don't see me placing the camera on the train edge because I use a reacher, so basically I just stand on the station platform and swiftly place it on the train edge. I use a gopro and the onboard microphone of the camera is good enough so that it doesn't capture wind noise (Atleast most of the time)
🚶🚂👍Extra, good job 👌👏🖐️
Wow nice view, I like to see new places ✌
Great movie 👍 Bravo 👋
And I have a new movie from a walk around the city 😊
Regards, DJ Janusz from Warsaw Poland ✌ 🇵🇱✋
I was wondering why the “SS” label appeared on the video when the train entered 9th Avenue. The Culver Shuttle service that ran to here ended in 1975.
just a weird Easter egg 🥚 lol
Super clean video! Have you done or do you plan on doing the #6-Pelham Bay Line? I rode the #6 as a kid to the city from Westchester Sq. Picked up the #4 or #5 at 125th Street. Then the Shuttle to the West side and the #1, #2 or #3 to Times Square. Back in my day, the #6 Uptown or Downtown Express was a joke. Too many signals, switches and that bridge at Hunts Point that kept slowing the train down. Thanks for the memories!!
6 express might be coming soon can't guarantee it but I'll sure try to do it 👍💯
@15:51 What's the SS? Isn't that the old logo for shuttle trains?
I think this track was the B train before it went express with the Q train
Did you wait till 96th Street to get back your phone or?
I waited till then because I was planning on uploading the full ride but it came out as a shaky af lol. So now I'm gonna redo it in the future
@@morganlimes ohok
I thought "express" would mean "West End Express" running down the center track to 9 Av. Then it happens after Bay 50 St.
But why stop at Bay 50th?
I used to do this since I was kid pre youtube
19:32 The openly blasted rock on the walls is fascinating; I assume that it can't be placed stone
because it's so uneven. You find open granite on the walls of the Helsinki Metro; It is very stable.
I assume that this is a small section of Schist, not sedimentary rock ???
Aarre Peltomaa of Mississauga, Ontario p.s. In the Toronto area, we have zero igneous rock; it
is all limestone, when seen. p.p.s. I believe that this is the only stone wall on the New York Subway?
Yes, New York Schist, allegedly the stone that enabled NYC to put up such big buildings.
how fast was the train going at the end?
like 45-50
Still not sure why these Q trains didn't switch to the center track just before Bay 50 St. Does anyone know?
The only reason I can think of is that maybe the switch was malfunctioning and not working and they didn't have time to fix it. Maybe this weekend they will utilize it. Also I think the operator stopping at bay50th mightve been an error lol
@@morganlimes Yeah that is a mystery to me also. But it shouldn't be a switch malfunction because they just replaced that whole switching complex less than 8 years ago, I believe. And yes, I don't think the operators got specific instructions about Bay 50th because I have seen videos from the same weekend with some stopping & some skipping the station. They may be stopping there (This is pure speculation now) to pick up passengers for a similar reason the J/Z stop at Marcy Ave before & after the Williamsburg Bridge.
Bay 50 middle is not part of the express track, it's a relay position.
Train look old track some wood need concrete and new track and switching
What was the car number on that north motor in which you rode?
I think it was #5566
@@morganlimesThank you for your most valuable information and for tapping or typing to me.
This video must be my favorite movie of the year. I look forward to watching it several times a week.🙂
How fast does it go from 36 ST to Atlantic Barclays Station?
around 35 mph average and during 9st station it feels like around 45 mph
@@morganlimes wow thanks ive always been wondering
14:47 went thru the red signal.
I wanna see the Northbound 7 Local
already on it 👍
I tried to edit & add more to my comments, but it made a whole new post. It keeps saying "returned error" : /
That's strange because I don't have any restrictions on my comment sections so I don't really know what could be the problem.
@@morganlimes I think it's a UA-cam thing. I looked up the returned error & there were a lot of posts about it for initial posts but not editing posts. Could be because Edge is new & keeps getting updates.
I’m that the r46 are going to be out of service in 2025
Can you bring your bicycle on the subway??
Yes you can 🚲
I don't want to get you in trouble, I'm just curious and this is prob a dumb question but are you an MTA motorman or do you just stick a camera on the front of trains somehow? Thanks for the awesome vids either way.
Its okay, its not a dumb question. I'm not a train operator I just use a tool to place the camera on the edge of the train.
Glad you enjoyed 😀
@@morganlimes You're doing what the TA should do like CTA does on their Your Tube.
Woo Hoo! Another great video! Kinda odd that 5 of the 8 tracks, as you head north from Coney Island are on the Sea Beach side & 3 on the West End side. Show of hands - how many folks remember when the Coney Island Creek bridge was only 2 tracks vs the current set up of 4? images.cf.nycsubway.org/images/i45000/img_45691.jpg The flood control at the bridge & the wall to the west shows they are doing a lot of work to protect Coney Island Complex from Climate Change & Global Warming. Weird that this train stopped at Bay 50th Street. There is another video (Side View) of a Q skipping this stop. In my opinion Bay Parkway is the coolest stop on the West End behind 9th Ave because it has the 2 double crossovers & one of the coolest towers in the entire system. The turn right before 18th Ave is interesting for a few reasons. The large building on the left used to be a movie theater, now it's a Marshals. Secondly, if you are an operator unfamiliar with this line, the repeater from the local track may confuse you as you make the turn 8:37. It's like you are going through a red signal. Kind of strange that 62nd St is a transfer with the Sea Beach N line at New Utrecht Ave because they both meet at Coney Island & 36th St. Again, like at 18th Ave, After Fort Hamilton Pkwy the repeater can confuse TO's & I think this time it fooled the Operator, lol. The area around 9th Ave needs trash cleaned off the tracks & weeds killed. One of my favorite places in the whole system is after 9th Ave going down to 36th Street. It goes briefly to 8 tracks where the ramps rise up to 38th Street Yard. Then as the train descends, tracks reduce to 6 then 4 as the 5th Ave El ramps rise up. I have never seen any pictures or videos of trains or tracks on these ramps. Not even on NYCsubway.org. If anyone knows where I can find video or pictures, please let me know! This tunnel that goes under the Yard to the 36th Street portal is so cool & creepy looking with an interesting design & construction method. At one time there was a 4-track turn off planned at 36th Street instead of the 2 tracks currently in place. A bellmouth can be seen on the Manhattan bound local track right before 36th St & the initial parts of tunnels are also built for the express tracks (South of the 36th St where the platforms would be), & the SB local jets out where a track would descend. images.cf.nycsubway.org/images/maps/boylan-36thmap.gif So interesting! Just like the Southbound express approaching 36th St, I remember when there were no timer signals northbound into Atlantic Ave. I'm thinking a passenger may have been struck by a train as the reason to put timers here. Not 100% sure though. Great video again, much appreciated for the work! I can't believe how much of a ghost town it was. No trains were passed. : /
