Ғылым және технология
Note: This footage was taken from a publicly accessible part of the train.

The NY Transit Museum occasionally runs special "Nostalgia Rides" for ticketed customers! These trips provide funding for the continued upkeep, restoration, and maintenance of the MTA's beautiful and comprehensive museum train fleet. Interestingly, most of these trains have passenger-accessible front windows, allowing riders a great view of the tracks ahead. Here we see a front-window view of the 4 Line from Woodlawn to South Ferry Loop. Enjoy!

It does my heart good to hear a bunch of kids go: "Ay, yo! It's Yankee Stadium!"
This is why I love NYC Subway infrastructure. I never knew how close the 1 train was to the 4 and 5 when it switched after Bowling Green to the former 1 train track to south ferry loop. Wonder if we could've seen the 1 train from the 4 or 5 train right before the tunnel wall when it used to go to the old south ferry loop considering they never 'meet' under passenger service. Guess I'll never know.

They would have passed right by each other. At the end of the video, the next track over is where the 4 and 5 trains would pass.
Nice ride. It would have been quieter on a scheduled run. The yammering kids spoiled it for me. Viewing the tracks ahead is ideal.. Thanks DJ Hammers😀💚

i cant tell yous how many times i thought that this was the market frankford subway and/or the broad ridge subway, while watching.
Those foamer kids are hilarious. Probably the most entertaining commentary I've heard in a while. "R-32 where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where?" 😆

Awesome video and trip! I love the South Ferry Loop 😊
That was epic! Enjoyed the commentary from the kids!
It's really good to see the South Ferry loop cleaned up again, after a lot of trespassers graffitied the walls and trashed the platform.
This was my main line growing up in nyc. Brings back memories
THIS is why I subscribe and support the channel. Thanks!! ❤️💯❤️💯 Fun listening to these kids really get into the different cars they see!
It's so chill to watch the trains here in NYC not gonna lie. 💯
that horn sounds a lot like the market-frankford subway in philadelphia.
Old School but legendary train car!
Amazing for me to see this video as I imagine to ride the subway in person. : )
those kids.
Epic ride
Would take the 4 to my highschool ☺️ I always loved the ride
Nice vid
Bro it was so fun catching this
5:07 ah, Kingsbridge Road, my home staion
one cool note around 15:40 is that we passed the stadium as the national anthem was going of game 3 ALCS of course we all know how that ended still in the moment it was so cool and for a moment I was even able to see the whole team lined up on the field it was such a surreal moment and our train actually had a yankee thing on the front for the occasion
Ah, to be a young railfan again.
Good video, the noise in the background was annoying.
Great commentary 😆

Nice but those kids were kind of annoying. But at the same time I can't blame the little guys, I probably would have done the same at their age. Of course when I was their age those trains were still in revenue service.

Some knowledgable (and excitable) "subway kids" on the train! (What is the difference between an R142 and an R142A anyway?) I wish the Transit Museum had been running trains like this when I was living in NY.
I miss when you can freely just look into the front window and see the tracks without seeing the operator cabin. At least WTAE gives us Rfws without the operator cabin for all trains. Edit: K I just realized some R62s have the free front window without the operator blocking the view.
