What's your favorite BMT line?

[MTR Admiralty]

Wait, how come the B is listed here? And as a West End line?

My favorite BMT Train is the train since it has Skip Stop Service.

I love the skip-stop service:tup:

Seeing my user name, I would be remiss if my choice was anything

 

other than the .

How so? They run on the same trains. Unless your comparing something that's not appealing to my intelligence, I contradict that statement.

 

When an R160 pulls into a station and those AC units kick in, it gets very loud. When your inside the train it's very quiet. Also, hot air from the AC units on the roof blasts off the ceiling and down on to the platform. Maybe that is what he was referring to.

Now as for my favorite BMT line, I have no vote since I am not a big fan of the BMT.

[R44 5278]

To me, Kawasaki makes the loudest of the modern trains along with Kinki-Sharyo. Not to mention, the PA5s accelerate extremely loud.

[R110B]

All day!

same here <Z> is my home line.

[Princelex]

I am a big train fan and the R160's make the line even better. Plus the express along Broadway & 4th Ave, the places it stops at and the views along the Manhattan Bridge are the best. The and are very close behind.

<Q>Express line has gotta The best EXP in the system

[RockParkH]

I'm going to say the Broadway local. It proves how much the and sucks.

Line is my favorite. I guess that the line where all my (transit-ism)started. HEHEHE

Definitely the L. Always on time. Extremely clean cars. Almost always manage to get a seat, even during rush hours. Fast for a local service, and the abundance of stops means you get off very near your intended destination. Easiest way to change between the Eighth Avenue (A/C/E), Sixth Avenue (B/D/F/V), Broadway (N/Q/R/W), Seventh Avenue (1/2/3) and Lexington Avenue (4/5/6) lines in Manhattan. Also easy transfers to the M at Myrtle-Willoughby and G at Lorimer St-Metropolitan Avenue in Brooklyn. Probably no other train enables so many transfers. Never had a missed connection with the A at Broadway Junction, usually just enough time to catch the L without having to hurry. A godsend for Saturday travel to Manhattan for me (I take the A at Beach 67th), when the A is invariably running local (no C), or not running between Utica and Jay St (shuttle bus ride takes 30 minutes). New-fangled train arrival message boards a little superfluous (timers showing minutes to next train good enough for me), but a nice addition nonetheless. Would ride the L everyday if possible.

 

all the way!!!

The Broadway local service is useless as far as I am concerned. I have often had to wait 15 minutes at 8th Street-NYU for a local train on a weekday (albeit not rush hour). The W isn't much better than the R, sorry.

[SeisSix]

My favorite BMT is the

 

The is amazing. Its fleet went from slants, to R68 to R160s. What a huge upgrade and it hasn't even been that long since the debuted.

 

[INDman]

Where's the(Z)train?

The(W)does not run on the 4th Avenue Line!

Why did you put the(B)via West End?

If you're going to put non existing routes you should've put the<Q>&<R>trains as options.

You're poll gets a:tdown:.

Sorry.

I love the(N)train!

 

Well, the is just a rush hour and is nothing different other then during that time.

[R160Siemens]

I'm going with my beloved Broadway Express. I love the stops, the speeds and the cars. Also, it's my home and work station.

 

Mi(N)es is the to because it uses the best dam(N) cars.

I like the N too, but be careful with the smileys, bud.

[EE Broadway Local]

I picked the . In Brooklyn, it has an interesting route, once featured the East 105th Street grade crossing and two of my favorite stations are Sutter Avenue/Van Sinderen Avenue and Livonia Avenue/Van Sinderen Avenue.

[geoking66]

I chose the , but the and are close runners-up. The L's quick, fast, timely, and clean, I just like it.

[bigrene18]

I like the train. I like how the train is elevated 3/4's of it's route.

[Daniel The Cool]

My favorite BMT Line is the but the and Franklin Avenue Shuttle is in second place.

[EE Broadway Local]

The . I don't consider the ( to be BMT lines.

In Brooklyn, the and are B.M.T. because of the Brighton Express and The West End while the remains IND. on the Culver? Kind of like the which becomes IND. in Queens.

[CenSin]

The is one of the three routes that take me to the places I travel to—and usually in the least amount of time compared to all the other routes. The is my backup in case the runs local.
