A Fun Final Day on the Ocean View riding the Cardinal back to New York and the first Upload of Amtrak Stations

Well Sunday night I did make it back on the Cardinal (which was following a quick trip down on the 3:00pm Hiawatha Service, much emptier since a Saturday) after an amazing fun night and day spent in the Dome Car Ocean View in the perfect location on the train as the very last car. The […]

Upload: The 7th Avenue Subway

Yup this morning I’ve been screaming up the West Side, finishing the 7TH Avenue Line. Here are the 8 dual-contracts stations most renovated in the 1990s, the southernmost express in 2008, a little less interesting than yesterdays IRT counterpart on the East Side: Chambers Street–(32 photos) Franklin Street–(26 photos of the station, plus 9 of […]

Upload: 14 Street and 6-7 Avenues-A complex of long passageways

This is station equals 42 St-Times Square for the longest you can walk underground and still remain within fare control at least at this stop walking within the station isn’t roundabout at Times Square, where transfering from the Shuttle to the 8 Avenue Subway uptown especially is a lot closer if you leave fare control […]

Upload: Most of the rest of the IND 8 Avenue Line

In this update I’m proud to conclude with everything missing from the IND 8 Avenue Line except for 3 big transfer stations I’m still working on. It includes probably the transfer stop that is best set up since it was designed to be one at West 4 Street with the long middle mezzanine, although I […]

Upload: Brooklyn Bridge-Chambers Street

In quest of adding more and more stations albeit a bit randomly today I completed this unique complex between one stop that’s probably the most creepiest in the system with 3 out of 5 station platforms abandoned but still visible, the other also has two abandoned platforms but there is no way to know that […]

Upload: 14 St-Union Square

Well I haven’t made an update this past week after a busy weekend and spending far too much time on my still unfinished section for the one station I am still missing on 42 Street. Anyway here is another transfer complex that I quickly made of 14 Street-Union Square, just each platform has its own […]

Upload: Rockefeller Center and Bryant Park

For security concerns Cortlandt Street on the R was closed again for the day in both directions, a little ironic since today was the day they were trying to reopen the stop for. Well today if I was better coordinated with its significance my upload would have been Lower Manhattan related like the current mess […]
