In so much as I freelance my layout roughly based on where I live (Staten Island NY) I plan on adding a point to point elevated railway based on the SIR and extending it around the side of my train room to make it more realistic in length.

Being from New York I can tell you that there are extensive elevated tracks that run in Brooklyn (B,D,F,N,LL,1,2,3,4 and 7 trains. In Queens the #7 train from Brooklyn runs through Manhattan and out to Flushing Queens. In the Manhattan the 1,2,3,4,,A,C,CC and D trains run on elevated tracks in upper Manhttan.
