Posted by FYBklyn1959 on Mon Aug 20 22:49:56 2012, in response to 1987 Train Ride To Coney Island, posted by CJ on Sun Aug 19 20:07:10 2012. Hmm, that was filmed the week before I came to NY for a visit, my first in 6 years. Didn't ride any graffiti trains, though I saw one on the 5 while I was standing at the 33rd St platform. Rode a 62A on the 3, Redbirds on the 7 (went to see the Mets w/ Gooden pitching in one of his first starts out of rehab beat the Cubs) :) Also rode a R-62 at some point and a Hippo on the D. Actually, I arrived in NY on a Wednesday (woulda been the 25th), saw the Mets on Thursday, then on Friday, went to Cleveland to visit some friends (on a tired-ass Pan Am 737-200, ex-Luftshansa). Overnight in Cleveland, then to Champaign-Urbana, IL on TWA via St. Louis (both ex-Ozark DC-9s, as the merger had taken place a few months earlier). Stayed in C=U until Wed. 7/1, then back to NYC (Britt Air Fokker F-27 from CMI to ORD (my only ever prop flight), then a United 727-222 to LGA. Went to the Statue of Liberty on July 4th (patriotic!) then to a cookout at my cousin's house in Brooklyn (which must be when I rode the Hippo. back to LA the next Monday (UA DC-10). Fun times :) |
