⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ NYC Subway Front Window View - The C Line to Euclid Avenue

Some of the trains that run on the C line are made up of R32-type equipment, which have passenger accessible front windows! This allows for the creation of videos that show the view ahead. Enjoy!

[@next50years]

Excellent video as usual. Thank You

[@RynardMooreVstar1]

Nice. Yep, used to ride the C all the time back in my NYC days. BTW, it's interesting how graffiti tagging has moved from the trains to the insides of the tunnels. I lived through the great graffiti outbreak in the 70's and everything got tagged except for inside the tunnels. Now since the MTA came up with a way to quickly remove graffiti -- it looks like they leave it in places where they don't really care about it -- like the tunnels. Anyway, to this day, I can't understand why someone would risk getting fried by the third rail or run over by a train just to put graffiti on something.

[@patrickmorrissey3084]

I think most of the graffiti in the tunnels is pretty old.

[@BornInSCLA]

Most of the graffiti in the tunnels goes back to when they’d bomb trains in the 70’s-80’s. Lots of stuff from the 90’s down there also

They are all still there. I just started working the C and still figuring them out. Some are crazy slow, especially going back uptown.

[@penguinmaster7]

My brother had an apartment right down the street from 86th street station

[@andynixon2820]

I'm familiar with the London underground . By contrast the New York subway seems to have much longer platforms and shorter distance between stations. Square tunnels , that's also different .

[@1575murray]

I have been to London and found that the NYC subway system is more like the first generation subsurface London lines that once operated steam locomotives underground. Some of the NYC system is deep tunneled like the later London deep tube lines which were built after electric propulsion became available. Both systems have somewhat similar histories in the way that they were developed and operated by private companies and then consolidated under government ownership and operation.

[@markcf83]

Think of the District/Met/Circle lines. They're surface lines as opposed to the Victoria and Piccadilly lines for instance. By the looks of it, this is a surface line of the New York subway.

[@tubblescousine257]

Cool

[@8avexp]

I still remember when the R-32s took over base service on the AA in December 1967. The C duplicates the AA route as far as Chambers St.

[@8avexp]

@Alex McCaffery There goes my cover.:)

[@Mathin3D]

Yeah, boy!

[@tf51d]

Curious why the Stop Marker "S" at 163 St and the 10 Car marker at 155 St are slightly passed the end station walls at these stations? I never seen this elsewhere in the system, generally they are before the end walls. Are these stations shorter than the normal B division stations, or is there another reason for this?

[@vidslob128]

These stations and also the ones along CPW are somewhat short so the S & 10 car markers are past station limits for full length trains especially 10 car new tech trains.

[@dwai1967]

Off to the left or right depending on the station, it's the covered rail that's raised off the track bed. If you watch the classic hip hop movie beat street, you can see it clearly as well as what will happen to you if you are grounded to it

Where does the c train go after 168th street last stop. Does it go do the dyckman yard?

[@TheRailLeaguer]

There’s a small relay yard north of 168th Street, where trains turn around to re-enter service.

[@RayArias]

A caption showing which stations the train is stopping at would be nice, particularly for people not familiar with C line, or any NY Subway lines (like me lol).

[@claysullivan5347]

right but it says the station name on the walls as the train is pulling in

[@RayArias]

Maybe if I watch it on a big screen, but I'm watching it on my phone. Also, this is from the operator's view, so by the time the train pulls up and stops and all the signs are done going by in a giant blur, there is nothing left but a signal light and a dark subway tunnel to stare at.

There are fewer trains that you can do this any more as the MTA has basically adopted the full width cabs on the NTT's Only the R32 and R42 are left on the B Division. Occasionally you may see some videos of R46, R68 or NTT's if the TO doesn't block the view, but this is a rare occurrence these days.

[@arifakyuz7673]

Because the TOs block them because they don’t want people to look in the controls.
