TexasDART Posted January 21, 2009 Share #1 Posted January 21, 2009 (If you are a member over at BVEStation.com this is the same message) Hey guys, I am coming up for my Spring Break. I will be flying in on the 13th of March, staying with my friend over in Hoboken. He is a railfanner and used to work for NJT. I will be in town until Saturday morning the 21st. I am really excited. If possible, I would really love to do a group railfan trip, and I know some of you guys will be in school, but I would still like to meet you and give ya a little southern "Hello". I told him I don't want to be like a tourist, but would just like to go see some of the landmarks. I would also like to go by the transit museum and maybe get some gifts to bring back. Anyways I am really really looking forward to this, I hope you guys understand some of my excitement. Suggestions or just banter about all this is well appreciated.

FamousNYLover Posted January 21, 2009 Share #3 Posted January 21, 2009 I agree. How about rail-bus fan along the 26 miles of New York City Marathon routes? That could be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Julio Posted January 22, 2009 Share #13 Posted January 22, 2009 Well dammit. The next tour for the IRT City Hall station is scheduled for March 7. You can sign up for membership to the museum and then pay for the tour but I'm not sure if you will want to spend all that money for a few hours down there.
