N4 Via Merrick Rd Posted September 22, 2012 Share #252 Posted September 22, 2012 What was in the vicinity of the 207 Street Yard before it's current existence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblock Posted September 22, 2012 Share #253 Posted September 22, 2012 According to the 1 train strip maps, 225 is still Manhattan and that's how I announce it. Wasn't 207 originally a bus depot? Or am I thinking of RCC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom909 Posted September 22, 2012 Share #254 Posted September 22, 2012 Nope, that station is technically still below sea level as it sits in Manhattan Valley (Manhattanville) according to topographical maps, 125th and broadway at street level is 25 feet above sea level. joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick44 Posted September 22, 2012 Share #255 Posted September 22, 2012 Marble Hill-225th St is in Manhattan, that should not count as an answer, even though it is on Bronx mainland. 75 St on the , and Halsey St on the would be a vaild answer, as those stations are located on the border of Brooklyn & Queens. I'm not so sure if Broadway Junction's Canarsie platforms are second highest. I would go with Snowblock's thought - 4th Av-9th St , only because of it being the other elevated stop with Smith-9th St. Though I've heard 125 St on the was the second highest. I have a trivia test: Name the subway terminals that have at least one MTA Bus* that serves only on weekdays. MTA Bus includes NYCT Bus and MTA Bus (for clarification).

Rick44 Posted September 22, 2012 Share #258 Posted September 22, 2012 Jamaica Center to Q42 This is one of the stations, but not the only bus route. Remember that bus routes labeled "part time routes" are not the only routes that run on weekdays only. Some (if not all) routes that are labeled "No Saturday and/or Sunday service" do only run on weekdays as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threxx Posted September 22, 2012 Share #259 Posted September 22, 2012 The Q34 as well serves that station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick44 Posted September 23, 2012 Share #260 Posted September 23, 2012 @Threxx - That is correct, but there's one more missing. There's at least one station for all 4 boroughs (S.I. does not count - as that is a railway, not a subway). To help with the answer a little; there's one station in Brooklyn, one in the Bronx, two in Manhattan, and three in Queens. Jamaica Center-Parsons/Archer is one of the Queens stations, and the four routes that qualify (yep, one answer for you) are the Q20B, Q31, Q34, & Q42. Hope this helps with your answer. The winner is the person that can guess them all in one post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
