10 trains at LEAST stacked up behind each other on the local this morning. Great line, railfans need to come back!

Thank you, Pelham, for having 41 trains on the road today so that my friend and I could photograph them (estimate). Check out the IND/BMT section for some B'way EL & Culver photos.

I love the way the R142A's look on the Whitlock Avenue. I think the (6) and (2) have the most photogenic El's in the system.

 

I do as well. They're really high too due to the highways that cross under them too.

 

Most excellent pics.....you photographed my favorite line very beautifully:D. All of them are my favorites

 

Thanks. For me, who doesn't travel to the Bronx ofetn, I love this line as well.

 

Dispatcher Frank Correll needs to go down and kick some ass!

 

Sure does.

 

very nice, the only thing i dont like is when the train takes the huge turn right near Whitlock, sounds like the train would fall, but it wont

 

Imagine being stuck on it. Most of those backed up trains were stuck on it. Thanks.

 

Nice! icon14.gificon14.gif

Great pics! The (6) is one of my favorite lines.

 

Thanks! It's now a favorite of mine as well.

Middletown Road is the 2nd best place to take photos there, the first being Whitlock

 

Never seen that <6> in LED before, pretty sharp.

 

Sure is, you'll only see it in LED now unless someone messes with the signs.
