The #4 train gains 200 feet or so between 125th and Kingsbridge.Again, according to DeLorme's Topo North America 10.0, Jerome & Kingsbridge is 135 ft above sea level and the Harlem River at Lexington & 125th has a depth of 22 ft below sea level. There just might be an altitude change of almost 200 ft. The distance between the middle of the Harlem River and Jerome & Kingsbridge is approximately 4.6 miles or 24288 ft. That's an overall grade of 0.8%. |
