A couple of Saturdays, I took a walk along the Flushing line from QBP up to 46th Street. While I took a bite at Wendy's, I also ran into R36 #9346 before finishing up on the 46th Street/Manhattan-bound platform. Enjoy the results of my latest walking tour:


































Thanks for peeking,
David

Very nice work, David, some unique perspectives. Just a tip, might want to clean your lens. I saw a spot with all that bright blue background. It's not obvious, just to me since I get them often.

your pal,
Fred

Great pics! My favorites are the one of the train with the three different ads (the LGA college one is my favorite because of the colors), and the one of the train pulling into 33rd over the curve.

I like the photos!! If you could do something similar when the TOMC is on the line for whatever reason, I would absolutely love those pics!! Keep up the good work!!

THanks. Whenever the TOMC or any museum train runs outdoors, it's a sure bet that I will be outside on the streets along the ROW.

Beautiful. I must try the new Queens Plaza ground shot. I've been thinking about it, but haven't gotten there yet.

Great stuff. I love the 7 line. Even more interesting that the billboard on Queens Blvd and Van Dam is still not sold.

Great shots. I love elevated pics because you can see all the infrastructure out in the open. (IMO it's too bad the PSC and IRT didn't build it as a four track line. Either four tracks across on Queens Blvd or two tracks double decked as above on the narrower streets).

Keep up the great work!

Whats so funny?
I told the man the sky is really nice in his pics and you laugh.
Are you retarded?
Is that why you wear see through shirts at trolley museums?

Thanks. And what is great about photographing outside elevated structures is you can see the pulse around the ROW: the people, the stores, etc. Another huge plus is you can also photograph remains of demolished and abandoned sections. . .I have a bunch of remains of the old Queensboro Dual Contract sections, especially the connector between the Astoria and Flushing lines.
