This is a channel for me to share videos that I create during my rides in public transit systems. I live in New York City, therefore, most of my content will depict MTA's buses, subways, trains, ferries and others. However, while on vacation, I tend to explore other cities' public transportation systems as well, and I may end up creating content from other places across the US and the world.

The content in this channel covers mostly rides on vehicles, and walkthroughs of stations. I usually don't discuss details of specific car models, train models, manufacturers, etc... I just share the view from inside of vehicles.

Feel free to explore the content on this channel: share it with family and friends, feel the nostalgia, and of course, leave some comments of your preferred rides. If you have requests, I'd be glad to hear them and maybe add them to my list of future rides.

Hey: at 3rd Ave & 8th Street, the recorded voice mentioned transfer to B103 LTD and B61, however B61 doesn't stop at that stop, it stops on 9th Street. At Atlantic Ave and 4th Ave, the list is long: B41, B41 LTD, B45, B63, B67, 2, 3, 4, 5, B, D, N, Q, R and LIRR (Long Island Railroad)

At the south end of the platform, the tracks continue for approximately 100 or so feet. That's because, in 1924, the New York City Board Of Transportation wanted to connect Brooklyn's 4th Avenue Line with the Saint George Terminal of the SIRT. Of course, the connection was never completed because the money wasn't there to do so, so the construction efforts ceased..

No barrier that opens and closes only when the train cars are there to keep people from falling or being pushed onto the tracks when a train isn't there.
@thetransitrider
@thetransitrider Месяц назад
Very hard to predict some behaviors... A few years ago, on this very station, a train derailed and came towards the escalators. No protective barrier would have helped in that situation.

Both Chicago airports have L service directly to airports, for ORD train is 24/7 too. Are many times train much faster than traffic. The CTA makes money off tourist by charging higher tix prices outbound from ORD (not inbound) vs standard CTA charge
@thetransitrider

True, I gotta say the extra charge is a bit pricy, but for the fact that you can hit downtown with no hassle, it's kinda worth it.
