LUPO - thanks for comment re; my post. Brought back memories of my first ten years growing up in NYC. Check out the recommended websites referred to earlier in this 'topic' , esp www.nycsubway.org An incredible amount of useful and fascinating info and tremendous photo archive. Saw pics of IRT, BMT & IND cars I rode, the station at 82nd St/Jackson Heights on Flushing Line where I used to sneak under the turnstyle when I was 7 or 8 to meet my Dad on the platformh when he was coming home from work in Manhattan. There is a good section on the (Hudson) 'Tubes' now PATH trains we used to take to Hoboken when it was too cold to take the ferry. There's even a bit of my old apartment building peaking over the tops of some IRT cars in the 82nd St station; can actually see my old kitchen window! My wife yawned when I showed it to her. . .Anyway thanks for introducing this topic - brought back good memories. Bit more obtuse trivia-there was at least one, possibly more, model railroad shops in shopping arcades in subway station underground. May have been at Times Square or Grand Central Subway Station. . .
