I've transitioned to shooting in 4K. That's 2160P, as opposed to 1080P. This is the first video on my channel that'll be in 4K.

Today's trip was very popular, many people rode and had a good time:

So the front destination sign on that lead car actually had a "145th St." reading? I guess the side signs didn't though, since they were set to "Concourse - 205th St.".

The styling of the end sign looks as if it came from an IRT Car. Don't recall IND Cars of that era having 145th St on the signage.

Interesting that they were able to find a sign that still read 145 St since once 148 St opened, trains didn’t terminate at 145 although some originated there.

MTA Music Under New York Celebrates Centennial of Billy Strayhorn in Collaboration with Jazz at Lincoln Center, New York Transit Museum
November 30th, 2015

It was a fitting celebration for a jazz legend and those who like to 'Take the A Train,' or in this case -- a nostalgia train.
On the centennial of Billy Strayhorn's birth, MTA Music Under New York (MTA MUSIC) collaborated on a day of musical performances to celebrate the jazz composer's legacy with the help of Jazz at Lincoln Center and the New York Transit Museum.
The homage to Strayhorn on Sunday, November 29, was planned as a surprise to holiday customers, with special performances by the Donald Malloy Quartet from the MTA MUSIC roster and the Evan Sherman Entourage at the invitation of Jazz at Lincoln Center. It kicked off at the 145 St station, where musicians played a medley of Strayhorn compositions, then followed his directions: "You must get on the A train!" and stepped aboard a special A Subway train with seven cars from the era when Strayhorn composed "Take the A Train."
Strayhorn, whose nickname was Sweet Pea, was born on Nov. 29, 1915, in Dayton, Ohio, and lived in Pittsburgh before he moved to New York City in 1939 to take a job with Duke Ellington. The special event with the MTA is among celebrations worldwide to celebrate the man who created the Duke Ellington Orchestra's signature tune. The song, written in 1939, was inspired by Ellington's directions for Strayhorn on how to get to his new job in the Sugar Hill section of Harlem in northern Manhattan.
"If you are familiar with the jazz standard 'Take the A Train', then you know something about not only Duke Ellington, but also about Billy 'Sweet Pea' Strayhorn," said Wynton Marsalis, Managing and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center. "Strayhorn became essential to the Duke Ellington Band; arranging, composing, and playing the piano. Strayhorn was a genius. In 1999, we played 'Take The A Train' on the train with musicians from MTA's Music Under New York program. It's time to swing the A train once again with the MTA. We celebrate the centennial of Mr. Strayhorn by saluting one of the most meaningful compositions in the jazz canon, as we also salute our public transit system."
Customers who boarded the train were treated to performances by the two bands, which alighted at 59 St-Columbus Circle and together performed on that station's mezzanine level. The bands continued the performance as they headed up to Dizzy's Club Coca Cola at Jazz at Lincoln Center, where planned one-night-only celebrations featuring MTA MUSIC performers Sunnyside Social Club and Underground Horns, and the Evan Sherman Entourage were scheduled for 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. A free livestream of the Dizzy's shows is available at jazz.org/live.
"We are absolutely thrilled to celebrate Billy Strayhorn's music in the subway since his composition, 'Take the A train,' serves as a soundtrack of sorts for millions of strap hangers and Strayhorn's soulful jazz is rooted in the New York experience," said Sandra Bloodworth, Director of MTA Arts & Design. "What better way to celebrate his centennial than by playing and enjoying his music at the source of his inspiration. We owe many thanks to local artist and jazz fan Cliff Robinson for initiating this celebration, our friends at Jazz at Lincoln Center for making this event possible and our partners at the New York Transit Museum."
The New York Transit Museum provided the nostalgia A Subway train comprising seven R1/9 cars that are stored on the platform level at the downtown Brooklyn museum. The cars were first used on the city-owned Independent Subway System (IND), which began service in 1932. IND cars measured 60 feet in length and 10 feet wide, and had rattan seats, paddle ceiling fans, incandescent light bulbs and roll signs.
Included in this special nostalgia train was the R100, also known as the City Car, which was the first one constructed for the IND in 1930 and is the ancestor of the modern A Subway train car. The R1/9 cars were retired from passenger service in 1977. Additional information on the cars is available in the fact sheet for the New York Transit Museum that is included in this packet.
The nostalgia train began its journey at 145 St on the Eighth Avenue Line, which was the first portion of the IND to open for service on Sept. 10, 1932. The station also opened for service on that day in 1932, and the Eighth Avenue Line had been in service for just seven years at the time Ellington directed Strayhorn to take the A Subway to Sugar Hill. In 1932, the A Subway train ran express from 207 St to what is now the World Trade Center station, while the AA train ran local between 168 St and Chambers St. That route was later renamed the K, then became the C Subway train in 1988. By 1939, the Eighth Avenue Line had been extended south and into Brooklyn.
"Take the A Train" became the signature tune of Ellington's band and a major hit. Strayhorn's other well-known compositions include "Chelsea Bridge," "Something to Live For," and "Lush Life," as well as the 12-movement work "Such Sweet Thunder" that he co-wrote with Ellington. They worked together until the 1950s. Strayhorn died of cancer in 1967.

Neither do I. 145th was not used as a terminal as far as I know when the Arnines ran in regular service. However the 3 did use 145th-Lenox Ave. as its northern terminal before the 148th St. station opened using two tracks which were part of the storage yard at that location. The font on that end sign seems to look like the one used on the cars which the 3 used in those days (R21-22 with some older former Flushing line cars mixed in).

There was a PBS special on jazz music in which the title of the tune was explained. Billy Strayhorn was to go to duke Ellington’s apartment in Harlem and when he asked for directions, the Duke simply said “take the A train” and that became the name of their composition.

I'm particularly impressed with R-4 401 - powder blue interior, red leatherette seats (not a mix - all red) and brighter lights. Same kind that were used in the R-7a's and R-9's when they went East.

Watching in 4K requires a pretty fast connection. 30mbps or higher should be fine.

Maybe not, but if those were the directions Duke gave out, then that would probably have been the name of the tune.

I'm curious about the answer to this question, too. I mean, the video is good, but I didn't see anything different or better about it than your other ones. What is the benefit of 4K video?

The video is higher resolution. On a monitor of high enough resolution, you'll be able to make out more detail in the video than a video that is 1080P HD.

It's a method of future-proofing. Not a lot of people own monitors that display 4K resolution, but within a few years, they'll be much more widespread.

So you won't reply to me when I ask the question but when someone else asks the same thing in support of me, then you'll reply? Biased much?

Anyhow, no, you're not future-proofing anything. In a few years they will have an even higher resolution for recording. So you are just wasting space.

Maybe it's your behavior. And as to your "not future-proofing" do you really want to watch 360p on an HDTV because others didn't prepare for now?

Basically four times the detail. Have you ever watched VHS on an HDTV? Yep, it's like that. Kudos to DJ Hammers for a very fine production with exquisite detail!

We already know about the higher resolution. You didn't answer the question.

Why? Who exactly will benefit, and how?
