With the limited time you have your best bet is to take a ride from Times Sq on the NYCTA # 7 line. It stops at Grand Central Terminal which is a must see. Get back on the 7 (to Queens) It comes out on the el structure along Amtraks Sunnyside Yard in Queens . Take some shots as you go by on the train. Run it out to 61st St/Woodside for the LIRR rail station downstairs. Plenty of action there. Head back on the 7 to Manhattan and transfer at Queensboro Plaza for the N / W to Astoria. Some good shots of the Hells Gate at the Astoria Blvd station or Ditmars Blvd which is right under the viaduct. <br />Forget about Trainworld, Too far to get to and not worth the trip. Try Manhattan Trains if you are going to be in Midtown. <br /> <br />http://www.manhattantrains.com/index.cfm <br /> <br />Manhattan Train & Hobby <br />14 West 45th Street, <br />New York NY 10036. <br />Hours: <br />Monday-Friday 10AM-7:30PM; <br />Saturday 10AM-6PM. <br /> <br />
