Can't believe they're getting rid of those cool tables from Grand Central Terminal! Such a shame because the terminal definitely needs more seating! It doesn't say what the station on the sign at 6:21, but it's definitely Fourth Ave/Ninth Street since that is of course where R meets the F and G! And yes, the signs that mentioned Zerega Ave and 174th Street are both in The Bronx. Zerega Ave is named after Augustus Di Zerega, noted Bronxite of the 1850s. Shipping magnate Augustus Di Zerega purchased the land that became known as Ferry Point Park in 1850 with Jacob Lorillard, a tobacco manufacturer. And yup, the orange Q was a thing! From 1988 to 2001, Q service ran along the IND Sixth Avenue Line in Manhattan, with a bullet colored orange! In December 1988, the Manhattan Bridge's north side tracks reopened, and the south side tracks closed, and the reconstruction project on the Brighton Line ended. The Q became the weekday Brighton Express to Brighton Beach and was rerouted via the north side of the bridge and the IND Sixth Avenue Line to 57th Street-Sixth Avenue. This orange Q ended when in July 2001, the Manhattan Bridge's north side tracks closed and the south side tracks reopened.
Yup, you can get replica subway signs for a good price! I have a Times Square-42nd Street station replica sign (without the W as I got it during the period the W was discontinued) that I got from the Transit Museum's online gift shop! Pacific Street at 5:33 refers to the old name of Atlantic Ave-Barclays Center which is Atlantic Ave/Pacific Street! The Eastern Parkway Line platforms at Atlantic Avenue were built for the IRT as a terminal station on the city's first subway line, which opened on May 1, 1908, while the Fourth Avenue Line platforms of the BRT opened in 1915 as the Pacific Street station. But that Jay St-Borough Hall sign is definitely something! The Jay Street-Borough Hall station was built by the IND in 1933, while Lawrence Street station was built by the BMT in 1924. These two stations remained separated for 77 years, when a 2010 renovation finally connected them together. Lawrence Street station became Lawrence Street-MetroTech in 1993 when MetroTech opened, and when the 2010 renovation connected them together, they of course opted to combine the names. Thus, Jay Street-MetroTech.
The seat for $800.. 🤣 yes because I love to have an uncomfortable metal chair laying around just because it once habitated a subway train. That trash hardly worth anything.
Question: when you were trying to catch the R160 Q, what time did you got to Atlantic Barclays Center because I caught it today and got to Barclays around 8:40AM and I came from the Bronx left my house at 7:30AM, got to 14TH st Union Square at 8:25AM and caught it on the first try
I had the opportunity to go to that pop up shop in the past, but was always busy. Everything is too pricy. Also you should have grabbed a slice of pizza at Spumoni Gardens just a few blocks away from the area. Really good pizza.
I get that they're official but covered in all kinds of wear, scratches, rust, stickers, graffiti, you're right that they are way too proud of themselves. The globes look like the coolest thing to have, other things I don't know what anybody's gonna want with, especially a trash can
@SuprToe I lived there from birth to age 13 in the Bronx, so I remember seeing them in the red birds R32. Gosh, I'm old, lol. I'll be up there soon, January 8th.
All i want for christmas is christmas Start at Hoyt Skimerhorm (C) to Jay St (R) to Whitehall St (1) to 42 St (S) round trip (M) to West 4 St (A) to Nostrand Av (S) to Prospect Park Oh and also i want all night train
Remember when you said go to subway and check which train and which station I did that and it didn't show how many minutes it showed the times can you tell me how to change it to minutes not times
I’m so interested with this but this is completely out of my price range. I have no place in my house to hang it on my wall even my basement or my bedroom. I’ll have to pass or buy those cheap signs at the NYTM store. Very very expensive
@@SuprToe If they had a smaller 18th Avenue (D) sign I would consider it cause that’s my station stop where I live but I have a certain budget to spend. These signs were original since whenever they constructed each station, they would use it as scrap metal or sell them as a piece of history from over 25 years or so. I just didn’t like the idea of making an appointment just to look for old subway signs, but if it was free, I’ve considered going cause it’s not too far from the where I live and o technically live around the area. Considering those kind of signs, I juts don’t see myself buying those signs and installing them in my house. At least you tried to find the Hoyt-Schemehorn station sign but unfortunately it’s $600-$700, that is wayyy over my budget. I’m also glad you had a great time exploring the pop up shop, didn’t know it was near my neighborhood by Coney Island, could’ve taken the B64 to Bay 50th Street. Anyways have a good weekend
I just noticed that shop but I don't care if I didn't go because it's until 2PM and all three days I'm in school at that time until 2:35 and also I live in the bronx
Good Video. Let's just also say; whatever train GoGoSuprtoe plans to ride first, and then the train schedule says a different train is coming. Nope, he gets to ride the trains he wants.
suprtoe, todays my bday so i would be honored if you even just saw this. for my bday month… D from Atlantic av to 7 av E to spring st C to BJUNC because why not
you know i've seen people with subway signs and i just figured they were stolen lmao you definitely should have bought the hoyt schermerhorn one man. i had no idea this was going on. i also do not have any money for it, but i woulda figured something out myself re: the 125th 456 signage
Pretty much has been eradicated since 2010. Even the original signs who had the Orange M stickerd over the Brown has been placed with legit Orange M signs.
The prices had me a little "tilted". Especially because they want 4 figers for dirty, dingy, rusted, and nearly faded entrance sign just cuz there's an Orange Q on it. I get the authenticity of it but they should be priced based on their condition, not their rarity. Why pay $1200 for a sign that might require you to get a tetanus shot if you hold it the wrong way? Thanks for showing us this before we blindly spent money on it.
Yeah. I guess it’s the genuine authenticity that is the selling point for some people. Replicas are cheaper and look nicer, but these are actual historical markers.
I would like to Suggest, (S) From Grand Central To Times Square (1) (For A "P" To 14th St (A) To 42nd St (M) To 5th Ave (7) To Times Square (Q) To 14th St (N) To Atlantic Ave (For Spelling The Word "Spamton")
Back in the late 80’s/early 90’s the MTA held “Subway Memorabilia Sales” at the Transit Museum. The prices were so much more reasonable. I bought 2 of the old square station globes in their original box, with M stickers for $25. One year I locked up an original Unimark Graphics Standards Manual, brand new, for $10. I also bought a 5 foot long station sign that abbreviated Brooklyn in the main direction for $25. I could have bought the right half of the sign but had no place to put a 10 foot long sign. In fact, The NY Times did an article with photo about the sale and I was in the pic - had no idea until a co-worker pointed it out to me. Maybe MTA will do this again in the future with lower prices since they’ll have Congestion Gouging in place to cover selling this stuff at a purchasable price.
Can you spell rlce take the R train from 5th aveune 59th street to 14th street union Square and transfer to the L train from 14th street to 8th aveune and take the C train to wtc and take the E train to west 4th street
I’m glad you were able to film this. Too bad the prices were so high as it would have been neat for you to own an official MTA subway sign. Maybe you’ll get lucky the next time around. If so, you might want to consider wearing your Miami shoes - you tend to have good luck when wearing them. Maybe they will help you snag a great deal the next time the MTA does this.

Yeah I realized where the 4 Av 9 St sign came from after I said it.
@SuprToe wait how?
I do not know.

I believed he got there at the right time, but instead of waiting at Atlantic, he was moving away from it.
prices so high where only new york city royality can afford to buy it !!
Those signs were mad expensive! 😱
I had the opportunity to go to that pop up shop in the past, but was always busy. Everything is too pricy. Also you should have grabbed a slice of pizza at Spumoni Gardens just a few blocks away from the area. Really good pizza.
Those sons are very expensive. You cannot buy them if you’re poor.

I've heard of that place before, and I actually bought an MTA Subway Logo for $500 Dollars.
I pray to get a Newkirk Q&B sign one day 🙏🏼
MISSION OBJECTIVE: Try to find an R160 D Train
I hope you got to go back this year!
That was awesome. It was too bad the prices were high.
Agreed. $25 was a reasonable price for the grip bars but I wasn’t living in NYC rolling stock used those so it has no nostalgic value for me.
@SuprToe I lived there from birth to age 13 in the Bronx, so I remember seeing them in the red birds R32. Gosh, I'm old, lol. I'll be up there soon, January 8th.
I love it how they sell these signs.
It’s pretty cool.
I wanted to go to that so bad!!! Too bad I don’t live in nyc

Nice! They are really starting to build up that area right now.

Yeah but if they had a Hoyt Schermerhorn column size (the ones on platform columns) station identifier I’d probably have gotten it.

R160b Siemens My Favorite Train 🚆 Of All Time ⏲️ Go Go Suprtoe
I also wanted to see an 18 Avenue D train sign 😊
Wow I thought London Underground was mad for their prices with old signs.

I want to go there
I just noticed that shop but I don't care if I didn't go because it's until 2PM and all three days I'm in school at that time until 2:35 and also I live in the bronx
Yeah the hours of operation are frustrating.
Good Video. Let's just also say; whatever train GoGoSuprtoe plans to ride first, and then the train schedule says a different train is coming. Nope, he gets to ride the trains he wants.
How the MTA makes up for their lost money from fare evaders:
3:36 shoot, I thought it was a cold heater
😂
Never heard of it until I saw it on TikTok
1000? no wonder they discounted most of them
At 14:30 I see my mom looking through the R32 car number signs
suprtoe, todays my bday so i would be honored if you even just saw this. for my bday month…
D from Atlantic av to 7 av
E to spring st
C to BJUNC because why not
you know i've seen people with subway signs and i just figured they were stolen lmao you definitely should have bought the hoyt schermerhorn one man. i had no idea this was going on. i also do not have any money for it, but i woulda figured something out myself re: the 125th 456 signage
Try a payment plan!! ❤
day whatever of asking Suprtoe to go to the botanical gardens
But every borough has one of those don’t they?
@@SuprToe they probably do, but it could be cool who knows
10:50 mta is going to possibly eradicate the brown m train because they're getting rid of the r143 strip maps
Pretty much has been eradicated since 2010. Even the original signs who had the Orange M stickerd over the Brown has been placed with legit Orange M signs.
@@CaseysTrains I mean eradicate for good and did r143 ever run on the brown m line
I know your getting payed on TH-cam you need more likes I’m liking the video
i would grap one shield under my jacket and run away with. these pricee prices are unpayable !
ditmas ave
Micturition is from kidney to bladder, he was urinating.
Can you do something special for next week? Christmas is coming up. Do something that is related to Christmas!
That’s the plan yes.
I guess this is how the MTA makes all the money the have lost from fare evasion that started decades ago
This doesn't help at all
guys, I'm not the best at math. but I think he just pulled out a thumbnail.
The prices had me a little "tilted". Especially because they want 4 figers for dirty, dingy, rusted, and nearly faded entrance sign just cuz there's an Orange Q on it.

Your next mission is to hunt for an R62A 4 train
I saw one passing Hoyt st once, it’s extremely rare
Man you guys really like to see me fail that much? 😂

Wait, I Forgot The (A) xD! And The A (Between 1 And M) To 42nd St Would Be A Great Vid :]
I can make you any of the MTA signs for a fraction of the price. Like less then $100
