I apologize. Of course Lion woult not stand on the cover board. It only LOOKS like Lion is standing on the cover boad, but actually Lion is a bit higher and to the left. But what does Lion use to keep him at that height next to the wall, between the cover board and the wall. Glue? Or has Lion metemorphed into a caterpiller?
Oh I know, Lion is hanging by his paws from the foliage!
The location of the train is correct, the location of the LION is not.
The LION is on the LEFT, he is up on the wall under some of that nice green foliage.
LIONS have a lot of savy, and would not put themselves down on the tracks or any place else where they could get hurt.

Here there be cats. LIONS with CAMERAS
Looks like you are looking soiuth from a spot on the overpass over the south end of the Prospect Park Brsighton Line Station with the rear of a southbound Q.
And Lion is standing on the 3rd rrail cover board at the extreme left of the picture on the track where the third Franklin Shuttle train was (is) stored when only two are running the shuttle service.
I'm just showing off my pictures. I just like hiding a LION in there, and others like finding them. Others like trying to figure out where on the NYCT the photo was taken.
I love this. Like when I was a boy trying to find Waldo.
Sorry Lion took me a while trying to figure out what you were doing here.

Wow I finally figured out this thread.

In the pix just to the left of the ball, fuzzey, vertical, orange.
Enlarging the picture, I think I see him on the 544. There is a vertical bar with a ball on top at the end of the bar, is that what you are seeing?
That looks like some slight discoloration of the black paint, perhaps some slight rust, and is repeated ellsewhere. But there is a tannish orange thingamige horixontal bar in front of the middle dark lense below the top bluish green linght, and at the left of the end of whatever the horizontal bar is is what I see as the Lion with the color the Lion has always been. Or what ever else could it be? There is a black equimenet thing that it can use for support at that location.
I tried but could not find Lion there, but did find him a bit father away on some kind of control case just behond the signal to the right of the track. Trying to figure out whether the two-platform express station in the distance is Roosevelt Road on the "7" Flushing Line or East 177th Street on the "6" Pelham Line. Wish my memory was better.
LION is perched on the lower number plate on the signal.
Tried, but could not finish the project, Had to go to Morning Prayer (And Breakfast) you know.
Pic is there now so white screen is gone.
Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!
Yes, considerably to the right of the station sign.
But what is a Pelham train doing at Dyckman? No "1" sign avialable?
Dave is right. On the lower picture, Lion is the top of the black corrugated wall.
Lion appears to sit on the horizontal cable runs on the concrete wall, slightly to the left of half way between the 1st and 2nd light fixtures.
Is he glued there or did he metamorph into a caterpillar?
LION is sitting on top of the arrow on the green post.
I don't think that there is a LION on the stairs.
I'd love to see the pix when you finish modeling this station in detail!
This is, of course, the original Broadway line South Ferry Station, temporarily in use while repairs post-Sandy are made to the stub-end new station. And Lion appears to be on the stairway at the west end of the platform, pixwise, just to the left of the middle green post.
The other end of the LION...
BroadwayLionMetropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) and New York City Transit (NYCT) officials yesterday marked the completion of a two-year, $31 million rehabilitation project at the Dyckman Street Station.The project included the addition of a state-of-the-art elevator from the station mezzanine to the southbound platform, and major repairs to the station's exterior and interior finishes, MTA officials said in a press release."We have been able to fully rehabilitate this historic station improving the structural aspects and customer amenities while retaining the unique architectural features that have made this station so visually special," NYCT President Carmen Bianco said.After years of deferred maintenance, the finished station now has new concrete platforms, a refurbished Fort George Tunnel Portal, new platform windscreens, new canopies that include salvaged wood rafters, and a refurbished control area with restored historic finishes.In addition to the Dyckman Street Station work, MTA officials noted the completion of $23 million in repairs at five other NYCT stations: 207 Street, 215 Street, 225 Street, 238 Street and Van Cortlandt Park-242 Street. Platform edges and canopies were replaced at all five stations.
I have no idea where this is...however I think the Lion on the red board at the platform edge, at right.
