Very good stuff you have over there! You must have had an epic trip!

 

Thanks! I did have an epic trip.

 

Good ones.

 

Thanks!

 

Very nice collection of photos! What and where is that R-110 sign in photo 7?

 

Thanks! It's located on the downtown (;) and (D) track at Rockefeller Center. It's close to the south end, and it faces the track, not the platform. I think it might have been intendedn for when the R110B ran, but I only know it ran on the (A) and (C) lines.

 

sounds like a great trip, very nice photos

 

It was a great trip! Thanks!

 

Nice trip and pictures!!

 

Thanks!

 

Excellent pics :tup:

 

Thanks!

 

Great set of photos.

 

Thanks!

 

Excellent photos!

 

Is the photo of the wall blocking the trackway the "false wall" on the express tracks at 2 Avenue? I've never seen a photo of it before and have never visited the station.

 

Thanks! I believe that is the wall. I actually imagined it be more, well, wall-ish, but I guess it does the job.

Yeah me too! The way it's described online and in "Tracks of the NYC Subway", I expected it to be at the very end of the platform, giving the illusion of a stub-end situation for the express tracks. But yeah, it does the job. :tup:

 

Also, is there anything further than the bumpers at 207 St? It looks like the tunnels goes on for a little bit.

 

Oh, and look at those two pigeons at Lefferts!! They need the (A) train too! :P

 

-A :cool:

They go about 10 feet and end in a wall.
