Could have sworn I posted in here a couple of years ago, but apparently it's gone. Oh well.

I got this on my last visit to NYC in 2003.  As of a couple of years ago, this car was still in service, but I don't remember what it was renumbered to and thus can't tell if it's still active or not. 

This came from Chicago - it was a bit of a trip to find the CTA "gift shop" but ended up being well worth it.  This sign is in amazing shape - near-mint, I'd say - and was around $35.  All-metal with very sharp edges!

I think I have a few maps from defunct SORTA/TANK routes lying around as well...don't know where they are off hand.

damn near Queens

damn near

damn well

damn train

Spoken like a true New Yorker.

IIRC (interborough information resource center?)

Here's a fanciful question for you:

What if the MTA switched out all active rolling stock with London Underground 1995/6 stock?

I watched this great video today:
