IRT Bronx Express Posted August 26, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 26, 2011 Damn, time goes really fast... That map design was the best in my opinion, including the strip map in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alejr88 Posted August 26, 2011 Share #6 Posted August 26, 2011 Damn one went to Brighton Beach as the Brighton Express and the Brighton Local went to Stillwell Avenue. Obviously the Brighton Express ran on weekdays. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lance25 Posted August 26, 2011 Share #8 Posted August 26, 2011 Nice R32s. If I recall correctly, this was the last year of the (Mx) via Brighton before being rerouted down the West End for the first Brighton rehab project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GojiMet86 Posted August 26, 2011 Share #11 Posted August 26, 2011 Wow, I can't believe the train has been running to Astoria for just the last 20 years or so. Also, 6 trains end at Coney Island. Must have been a railfanner's dream (but quite busy, too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRT Bronx Express Posted August 28, 2011 Share #14 Posted August 28, 2011 If I recall correctly, this was the last year of the (Mx) via Brighton before being rerouted down the West End for the first Brighton rehab project.And the last time Brighton line residents had 3 choices: Nassau, 6th Av, and Broadway.

Guest lance25 Posted September 2, 2011 Share #17 Posted September 2, 2011 Remember, the only ran during the rush hours, whereas the ran all times except late nights, which allowed the to run express in Manhattan instead of local along its entire route.

FriedChikkin Posted September 11, 2011 Share #20 Posted September 11, 2011 There's an old, full map still viewable behind the bars at the mezzanine level of 168 Street line terminal not too far from the East side of Broadway entrance Station Agent booth. There's old movie posters up at Metropolitan Ave (G)/Lorimer St but they're in an area inaccessible to the public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sovetskii52 Posted September 11, 2011 Share #21 Posted September 11, 2011 Cool map. I also think that this design is the best of all. It also seems a bit more accurate in terms of "To scale". Too bad there are no videos from those times. I would like to see the via Astoria, via Queens Blvd, via Brighton, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
