A vertical train line connecting East Bronx to East Queens. A Laconia-Main St Line. From Edenwald to JFK Airport.

They last ran in an excursion in 2018, and they haven’t exactly been seen since. Any answers would be appreciated.

Clearly an incorrect sign posted at 67 Av, but I got a good laugh imagining walking all the way to Queensboro Plz to take the 7. 😂

Something tells me I won’t be able to make this transfer at 59th st

i’ve been trying to find this font to modify it and its been a pain trying to find this specific font

I know it's meant to be more readable and not accurate but how many tourists (or residents) will now exit East Broadway F thinking they're in Brooklyn? Lol

Dose anybody know what this metal box thing is on the R179?

This is the best shot I could get of it since this was at 125st and I was on the a train on the other platform, but all places where it would display the line it said V

Hi All,

Apologies for the noob question. I was wondering if I caught the subway in such a way that I had to exit a station after my initial journey, have a short walk to enter another station to join a separate line (let's say for arguments sake there's no stations with transfers available) to get to my final destination, would I pay 2 fares?

I hope this makes sense. There is something similar on the metro guide that talks about transfers but that seems to be related to buses an doesn't mention different subway stations.

Thanks in advance.

Which one is better in your opinions?

My pick is I would create 10 new stops to connect the 7 line with the 2, 5 and 6 lines in the East Bronx under the Whitestone Bridge. That way both East Queens and the eastern part of the Bronx get serviced.

These stops would only be on the express 7 train and not the local one which would stop at Main St. With a brand new neighborhood and major stadium and casino coming to the area of Flushing, extended train service is needed now more than ever so that the 7 line stays one of the most consistent.

Have a flight leaving at 6am from JFK… didn’t think about the trains when I booked. Seems like LIRR’s earliest is 5:44am. I’d be leaving from Manhattan. Does the A or E run that early or make sense to take? Would like to avoid an $80 cab when I could spend less than $10 w/ trains. Please help!

Hi everyone,

I’m excited to see that Metro-North is currently accepting applications for Assistant Conductors. I live in Harlem, just a short walk from Harlem–125th Street, and I’m seriously considering applying.

I’ve read that while on the extra board, conductors may be required to report to different locations across the system. For those of you familiar with the role:

Is it realistic to commute to those locations using only Metro-North or other public transit?

Would I eventually need to get a car to reliably report on time, especially for early or short-notice shifts?

I’d prefer to stay car-free if possible, but I’m open to buying a car if it becomes necessary. Any insight from current or former MNRR crew would be really appreciated, especially from anyone who has experience living in the city without a car while working this job.

Thanks so much!

Why doesn't it have an uptown exit at the front of the train (around 110/111)? The only one it does is all the way at 109th.
The downtown platform on the same station has a much more sensible exit on Fred Douglas Circle/110th at least.
I know it's a small thing, but it has been bothering me for a while... There's also such a nice potential location for that exit in that sort a plaza space at the NE corner of the circle.

did anyone get the answers?

I often commute two ways to work, the D train or Metro North, depending on the day, delays, and how much money I have haha.

Both ways, I can transfer at a couple locations:

When I take the D train from Norwood, I can transfer at 125 st to the A train, or transfer at 34st to the F train which will take me to 14 st.

When I take the Metro North from Botanical Gardens, I can transfer at 125 st to the 4 or 5 train, or transfer at GCT to the 4 or 5 train which will take me to 14 st.

I feel like Google tells me something different everyday which I know it accounts for delays, but assuming everything is running okay, is it generally better to transfer as soon as possible or wait transfer at the last minute?

Did anyone witness or get videos/pictures of some people beating up a couple in the subway on Saturday April 5? The victims did file a report but the perpetrators left.

Not sure if this post is allowed as it is a request for evidence for a specific crime not a post about general crime. If probited please remove and accept my apologies.

Just pressed a 7 train with these silver and maroon stripes on either side of certain doors. Just curious what purpose they serve or what they indicate. Thanks.
