Re: 1957: the trains you could see on every line

I wish cell phones and speedometer apps were around in July of 1969, when I went on what amounted to be a rocket ride on a Far Rockaway-bound R-10 Abbott. Once we cleared the bridge, we were off to the races. That train took off as if it had a Saturn V booster strapped to it (Apollo 11 had just blasted off to the moon). We had to be doing 55 at the very least down the straightaway.
