Posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Thu Apr 8 20:20:34 2010 Sunday, June 6 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.The Lo-V’s Take a Spin! $45, Children (5-17) $20, Museum Members $30, Children (5 – 17) $15 Includes New York Transit Museum admission. The first passenger run of the Museum’s Low Voltage trailer car 4902 in over 35 years (October, 1973) is the highlight of this “technical tour” of the subway system. Starting at the Transit Museum, this tour offers ample photographic opportunities for the most dedicated fans among us! Covering considerable mileage in Brooklyn and Manhattan, we’ll ride tracks not normally used for passenger service on portions of the A line and various elevated routes in the Bronx. There will be a stop for lunch; food is not included in the tour price. This tour is only for the strong of bladder!

Join us on our ever popular boardwalk-bound Coney Island Nostalgia Train, made up of R1/9 cars of the Independent Subway System. We’ll begin our excursion at the Transit Museum, where you’ll have exclusive access to the exhibits and store before the Museum is open to the public. Then ‘All Aboard’ the trains on the Museum’s platform level for a scenic, 2 hour ride to Coney Island on tracks above and below ground. Visit the amusement park, take a dip in the ocean, and enjoy all the area has to offer, or stay on the train for additional rides. Baseball fans can skip the train ride back and attend a Brooklyn Cyclones vs. Staten Island Yankees game, which starts at 6 p.m. at nearby MCU Park. Cyclones game not included in tour price.

Take in the summer seaside on our first ever Nostalgia train and bus trip! This special combination caper will feature both the R1/9 cars and the Museum’s vintage buses from the 1940’s and ‘50’s. Meet at the Museum where our vintage rolling stock will be ready and waiting for you to board. Then it’s off to Rockaway Park in a spectacular ride over Jamaica Bay, arriving just in time for lunch. Upon arrival, stroll to the local beach or ride one of our vintage buses to Gateway National Park. You can spend all afternoon enjoying the beach, or take turns riding each vintage bus. Ride the vintage buses back to their depots! Reserve with your ticket for an extra $5. |
