The Nostrand Ave branch of the 2/5.The Lenox/148+145st stops on the (3) The Nassau st subway below Fulton st (so no Broad st). That's really about it. All three are pretty much underground so really it's not something that burns me so-to-speak. There is some LIRR territory I've yet to fan (Oyster Bay, Greenpoint) as well as a whole ton of NJT (basically everything except the NEC and NCJL + RVL btw NWK and Raritan). I'll probably chip away at that over the summer if I can. |

It is OK to stay on the 6 train and ride thru the loop (I recommend the 8th or 9th car). That section is considered as "revenue trackage".The recorded announcement states: "This is the last downtown stop on this train. The next stop is Brooklyn Bridge on the uptown platform" As for me, I have been to just about every place one can go where the public is allowed that exist today (and some that no longer exist). I have been to some places where the public isn't allowed (I had permission, of course) such as the Coney island yard facilities, the 207th St facility, the 39th St yard, and the abandoned 91st St, 18th St, Worth St stations, the Brooklyn Bridge side platform ,the City Hall Loop station, the SF inner loop station (both when it was in use and afterward), the side platforms at Hoyt-Schermerhorn. Missing pieces? 76th St (if it really does exist), The upper level station at Roosevelt Av (I have only seen it in a Mark Feinman video), the South 4th St station (I have seen pics), the list can go on and on. and the lower level stations at City Hall (R train) and 9th Av (Brooklyn). |

But I haven't gone to all the new stuff since: not Parsons/Archer or 148th St. Though I have been to Queensbridge/Roosevelt Island. |

The last segment I rode for the first time was the Pelham line, in 1989. That being said, there are parts of the system I haven't ridden in years. Just about all the IRT in the Bronx outside the Jerome Ave line I haven't been on since the last MOD trips in 2004. I rode the New Lots line ONCE in 1987 and did not return again until an MOD trip in 2003. In fact, the MOD trips afforded me an excuse to see parts of the IRT I hadn't ridden since the early 90's beforehand and haven't ridden since. |

Many SEPTA lines I've only ridden once (Cynwyd, Warminster, Elwyn). |

I've also never ridden a Nassau Loop train via the Manny B, nor the Culver Line before the IND took it over. Not sure if I ever rode a (14) between Eastern Pkwy on the (15) and Atlantic Av (16). Never rode BMT multis.Bob |

Some (F) train lay up on that express track before the first (E) to 179th gets there. So yea its hard to catch a ride on a in service train on that track, I guess everyone just gotta wait whenever the Hillside local track has to be taken OOS for a G.O. Next Month there's a G.O where the CI bound (F)'s will pass though Bergen Lower level... another part of the system I can add to my list |

The cool thing about that track is that, even though the junction with Archer Ave was there, there were no speed limits. Trains flew through Van Wyck, it was some of the fastest track out there. Particularly later in the day, when the E and F weren't crush loaded and running at max capacity. |

I don't even recall going through any of the connections to the 42nd Street Shuttle, the connections between the Broadway el and the Canarsie Line at Broadway Junction, or the track at which the Malbone Street wreck occurred, though opportunities ride a train through any of that are few and far between, if they happen at all! |

Or at least that was the case. Whenever they have that G.O with the (L) line ending at Broadway Junction they sometimes end on the (J) line platform at the station. The connector doesn't have catwalks N/B IIRC, I always wondered what happened if a train went BIE on it? |

I've been through every station on the 3 Av el on both the City Hall and South Ferry branches, ant the old portion of the Fulton St El from Hinsdale St to Grant. I never made it to Rockaway Av since I rode Fulton on a Sunday when the service operated out of E/Pky. I also was on the S/B platform at Gold St (Myrtle Av) which is no longer there but have yet to set foot on the N/B platform which is still in place. I did enter at 91/Bway before it closed and used Worth St on several occasions but never actually set foot on either platform at 18 St on the Lex. |

One infuriating thing about 145th/Lenox as a terminal is that it left you outside of fare control, like the PATH at Newark. So you had to cross over and pay another fare to get back on.Was that the only station ever like that in NYCT? |

In my years of fanning the subways, I managed to visit all of the revenue routes and branches at least once [except the fallen branches 3rd Av Bronx, Culver Shuttle, Myrtle Ave-they went down before '76 when I turned 18 and became an adult. I was a kid living in Queens from '68 to '70 when all of these lines were operating but like most kids, I was confined to my block.].Of all of the subway routes, the least used by me were the G, L, and M[Myrtle Ave portion]. I remember going to Lenox Terminal [3] once, and I took the A to 207th St when the Bx12 SBS opened up. |

South Ferry inner loop and Hammel's Wye come to mind right away. I've gone through South Ferry from Bowling Green and on up the West Side as well as from Rector around the loop up the East Side.I've covered three out of the four possible local interconnections south of W. 4th. The only one I haven't done is from Spring St. to W. 4th lower level. Haven't covered either of the original connections still in place at the Times Square-Grand Central shuttle. This past July, I rode on the IND old timers from Court St. through Hoyt-Schermerhorn. |

I covered everywhere that I hadn't been a few years ago. Since then, the new South Ferry station has opened, so I will have to visit it. Even though I have been on the Queens Blvd line several times, I'm not sure that I've been on the local segment between 36 St and Northern Blvd (where the local tracks diverge from the express via Steinway St and Broadway), so I will cover that the next time in NYC as well.As far as trackage no longer with us, I've done the Culver Shuttle and the J to 168 St. Never got to the lower Myrtle or 3rd Av el (Bronx only, south of 149 St went away several years before I was born). MJ couldn't be helped, never had reason to be on it, and it went away before I was old enough to railfan (though I was riding trains solo in 1969, but usually only to go over to my grandmother's house near Newlots Av on the then 2 (now 3 and 4). 3rd Av el was my own fault, as I was a teenager by then and was old enough to railfan solo. Didn't help that I was living in Illinois when it shut down in 1973, and was only in NYC in the summer and at Christmas time. Didn't do Hammels wye, but back when I railfanned the Rockaways (during winter regents time in 1975), it wasn't in use during the daytime. Rode the A to Far Rockaway (previously, I had only gone as far as Straiton), then up to Broad Channel, got the HH to Rockaway Park. At that time, I thought that I had covered the whole system as it existed in early 1975, forgetting that I had never been to 207th St on the A! And I was on the A at that time, coulda just stayed on...actually, I might not have had time, anyway, I took care of that 31 years later, better late than never. :) Maybe at this point, I'll wait until the 7 extension opens and cover that. |

Any miles through Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas that aren't covered by the Auto Train, the Crescent, and Tri-Rail. Obviously, those with the advantage of age will be able to name many routes long discontinued. My discontinued mileage list is extraordinarily small, and the biggest route on it is (potentially) slated to reopen next spring anyway. |

If you rode on the Franklin Shuttle where would you have gotten on or off if not at the end.LION likes the Eastern Parkway station (with its transfer to the IRT. It is a subway station, but north of there, eh an even south of there it is a very beautiful railroad. ROAR |

"the new South Ferry station has opened, so I will have to visit it. "That may be quite a while. It was severely damaged due to Hurricane Sandy (flooded all the way up the escalators). I don't think there is a definite time frame as to when the station will be reopened as there is just too much work that has to be done (probably just short of a complete rebuild). |

I'll add to my original post that I've been to 168th/Jamaica, the Culver shuttle and 9th Ave lower, and the Malbone tunnel.And I thought of one other place I haven't been, from 57th/7th through to 63rd/Lex. I guess I'll have to wait until the 2nd Ave subway opens, unless I get lucky on a re-route. |
