larsmars223 Posted April 22, 2009 Share #1 Posted April 22, 2009 What route is the most visually attractive? I would have to say the Culver Line due to Smith/9th and the run to Coney. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainfan22 Posted April 22, 2009 Share #6 Posted April 22, 2009 Brighton, farock , dyre and the . Even though most of the outdoor portion of the line goes though inner city/ghetto areas its still senic IMO, that route has a nice gritty feel to it esp when the line was 100% R42.

Rutgers Tube Posted April 22, 2009 Share #7 Posted April 22, 2009 I love the IRT Flushing line, not only for the view, but for the variety of people who enter and exit the train. I like the Brighton Line, the J/M run over Broadway and the Williamsburg Bridge and I really enjoy the Astoria Line as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KTrainExp Posted April 23, 2009 Share #9 Posted April 23, 2009 The Rockaways, no doubt. The Culver would be an interesting one too. Especially with the elevation of Smith 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RokuSix Posted April 23, 2009 Share #10 Posted April 23, 2009 I love the Pelham Line of course...but I think an unsung hero is the .

MTR Admiralty Posted April 23, 2009 Share #11 Posted April 23, 2009 The only thing I like about the Pelham line is the curve at Whitlock Avenue. Other than that, its boring and dull ride along the way. As for the , I haven't been on that stretch of track since 2006. Well the only good views from the 1 could be seen from 207th to 225th, after that, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
