For those wondering why this exist, remember that the original video cut at a point to show nyc day and at night when the G becomes elevated. This video only shows the day portion used.

Ok, so it looks like this was taken last year when the 63rd tunnels was going through structure and track repairs, and the (M) line had to be cut back to 57th Street through that summer of 2023 and as result, some R160s from the (M) were sent to the (C) for more service. An R160 (C) Train can be seen in this video at Hoyt-Schermerhorn Streets station.

That is absolutely correct! F train was doing shuttle service between Lexington Ave 63rd St. to 21st. Queensbridge and back.

The G could be extended back to Forest Hills by only sending a limited number of them past Court Sq and the rest can short-turn at 21st St using the center track which currently acts as a crossover. Also, some local trains can run to 179th St due to Forest Hills’ limited turning capacity.

If they build the Rockaway connections sending the M to Rockaway beach then sure

@@dubreil07 I think the R should run on Queenslink because it would give the service above-ground sections for the first time. Also, F and M trains should switch tunnels because the 53rd St Tunnel is a continuation of the express tracks and the 63rd St Tunnel connects at a local station (36th St). Other than that, below are the routes each service should run on. E: Run fully express from the 53rd St Tunnel to Forest Hills. F: Run fully express from the 53rd St Tunnel all the way to 179th St. G: Run fully local from the Crosstown Line to Jamaica Center. M: Run fully local from the 63rd St Tunnel to 179th St. R: Run fully local from the 60th St Tunnel onto Queenslink.

31:20 That's a relic in plain sight right here: An old 1930s IND Type 2 trackbed with its 33 feet long rails still simply spiked onto the sleepers and held together with fishplates. That's how rails used to be secured on all railroads across the US and the subway. Such rail setup is no longer common nowadays with secure tie plates and welded rails across pretty much the whole active underground & ground level system. You can still find that old rail setup in most layups and yards, as well as on inactive tracks; but it's rare to see that on revenue service tracks like here.

I lived on Bedford and Lafayette until 1996 and the G train was a part of my life. I would take it as a kid to Hoyt, or to Yankee Stadium, or to Smith 9 to transfer to the F to go to coney island. During the 80s it could get rough at night at some of the stations. But I guess that was a lot of NYC until the Giuliani crackdown.

The round subway tunnels creep me out for some reason.

@JoseMorales-lw5nt 3 күн бұрын

It was always my understanding that in NYC, the rounded tunnels indicate portions of the subway line passing under bodies of water, mainly rivers. Note how in most tunnel videos where trains go between boroughs like say, Manhattan and The Bronx, usually the engineering design stops having a boxy ceiling and automatically turns curved.

@Mrbeahz1 Thank you! I forgot about that particular geographic detail. Not just water, but parks as well. I remember watching another subway video where the content creator made a great structural point. When you see exposed steel pillars along passenger platforms, that part is usually under a street or light roadway. If the steel pillars are covered in concrete and tile, that platform was built directly under a heavy structure, like buildings or highways... or parks!
