What Z trains used to go to bay parkway,the mta should send the Z train there and no rush hour skip stops,weekday only please mta.
Alex The railfan Agreed
leave your answers in the comments below ill pick my favorites in the next episode of YIAY
Are u crazy? I like that the Z train goes Express
Yes I did get it for the super subway bros,I’m subscribed to them.
M trains did
I remember reading that there were abandoned stations from the 1950s with old posters on the walls, and everything. Anything abandoned in a place like NYC gives me the creeps.
I wonder if anyone is still there waiting for their train to arrive.
David Schantz Lmao imagine😂😂🤣🤣
you maybe quite a horror
DAM
Maybe, but they've long been dead
@@eestiestoniamapping2891meaning sending shivers down my spine when hearing about a creepy abandoned station
3:47 R.I.P. Tokens & $1.50 Fare
yea in late 90s came the crappy metro card
Well, token stealing was a thing back then
In 2022 the metrocard is getting completely replaced.
They are already getting phased out on Lexington Avenue Stations between Atlantic Ave and Grand Central.
@@alexthemtaandr211weatherfa2 in 2020 they did kinda
Since they are abandoned, I'm more interested in knowing which poor soul has to keep changing the light bulbs.
Yikes😬😖
i think they come with AR 15 assault rifles and high beam searchlights so i think they're fine
@@toast6494 Why so much weapons what are they shooting a rat with a 15? 😂
@@TheStig_TG cuz, there is an American saying.
You can never have too much weapons
Some of the subway scenes in "Ghost" were filmed in that lower level of the 42nd Street/8th Avenue station.
Why did MTA abandoned Worth St, if it was WORTH it..? 🤔
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worth_Street_(IRT_Lexington_Avenue_Line)
Because it was to close between canal street and Brooklyn bridge city hall
Ba-dum-pah! 😉
Apparently it wasn't lol
Wamp... Wamp...Wamp...
A worker let me get a couple pictures down there
I find it very shameful that GTA IV doesn't have any abandoned subway stations or a sewer system for us the player to explore.
Edit:
Somebody gotta get rid of these children, every platform I go on my text/comment is taken out of context one way or another.
I'll ellaborate further, I find it a missed opportunity that these really cool places in the actuall New York weren't realised in GTA IV, instead we got a subway system that feels boring to explore except for that one big junction and the maintenance tunnel that is used to escape during the bank heist mission.
Yes we do have abandoned railway lines, one in lower Algonquin (elevated track in disrepair), the line next to Alderney docks and the one in Dukes, though they don't leave much to be desired except they all have stunt jumps.
I do not include the line that ends at a dead end since it looks like they are doing renovations to the station.
The game is dead, no shit sherlock, I don't need to point that out but I guess I have to.
Dude it's gta4 it's dead...
@@Drew1776. ur dead
ayyyyyyyyyyy gta4
@Andrew B still that would be awesome
There is one elevated station in eastern Dukes that is closed due to maintenance. I suppose that doesn't count as abandoned, but it is interesting.
What's with the creepy music?
Because it's a creepy city run by creepy people!
I opine that it's appropriate.
Yep xD
I have always said it is amazing how they built the NYC MTA. Tunnels & Stations cause they were built so long ago before all the technology we have today. I tell you they had some brilliant people designing and Engineering those tunnels and station's. In some areas there are tunnels over other tunnels due to all the subway lines we have underground.
It would be interesting to see pictures of tunnels that are no longer in use. For example the tunnel the M train runs through once it leaves Delancey Street station going to Broadway & Lafayette station. That tunnel wasn't used for many years and I'm sure there are many like that one which were used for some lines to connect to other lines. Which are no longer in use today. For years the M train would run to Broad street back to Brooklyn to Coney Island. At Broad street there is a tunnel that continues to brooklyn which the M or J would run through and continue to Coney Island back in the 70's & 80's. I can't remember if it was the J or M train that would end at Coney Island.
Also many subway stations had a middle level back in the days. For example like on the G train station at Bedford & Nostrand ave stop. When you walk up the steps leaving the track level there is a level which runs through the entire length of the station from Bedford ave to Nostrand ave. On the G train station Metropolitan ave stop there was a level just like the one at Bed & Nos that also ran the length of the station above the tracks. It would run from Metropolitan ave to Grand street but they closed it up and built a Police Precinct at the Metropolitan ave side right where you can connect to the L train at Lorimer station. I remember those middle levels cause I would walk through them when I was a kid and in my teens. They were kind of spooky at night cause during that time the stations were lit up with regular light bulbs. Which weren't as bright like the long florescent lights which are used today in all stations. I remember as far back when the fare was 35 cents. We would purchase tokens back in that time. Seems so long ago. LoL.
Funny how this short video of abandoned subway stations made me think of all this. I guess my memory is still pretty good after partying so much in the 80's & 90's NYC club scene. LMFAO😂😂😂😂😂😂. NYC you either love it or hate it. I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ it!!!
Wow. Imagine what the motion picture industry could do with these stations for future motion pictures.
It in the NY subway station
I don't know of anything more creepier than an old abandoned mta line....something about the darkness the grime, debris, and moisture that makes me shudder
Wow i never imagined there could exist a thing like these .
I' m from Buenos Aires .
They look haunted
black skull hunted*
Piga Chu ,they certainly do and are the haunting grounds of many a suicide victim
@@SarahJones-wy5us suicide! Really ?
@@MP-kt7oh YES seriously, or are you winding me up? many many poor sods end up on those rails as they do on London tubes rails , IN front of trains.
@@SarahJones-wy5us I just wanted to know cause I live here and I didn't even know that, I expect homeless to live there but not to kill themselves
It probably took a ton of work to build those stations, to just shut them down seems crazy
what do you expect when democrats run a city?
Ralph Sanchico yeah they should open 9th ave lower level that way rerouted trains can terminate there or something like that but no its forever abanonded
Ralph Sanchico whats that supposed to me cretin do you live here if not stfu
Edward Moran really how so clown
Edward Moran im in the Bronx come look me up
Perfect Music~ Great Video from a former rider of the NYC subway when tokens were around! Lol
Canal St isn't 100% abandoned. It is used to lay up trains for the night.
I actually have pictures of the other side of the Bowery if you want them.
It is on one side at the hole u can see the abandon canal Street
Worth street wasnt worth it
hardy har
Lol
Hahahahahahahhahaha nice joke!
Get it??
I want to go to these abandoned stations but not by myself. I just think its crazy how these stations were up and running at some point and then left abandoned the next. The graffiti is dope too. Kind of reminds me of the 70s and the 80s when the stations and the trains were covered in graffiti.
I'll rather not go alone. me and a friend went to worth street and 18th street, my friend told me he had bad vibes when we went to worth street. basically vibes telling him to leave.
@@LeJ3n021 Why? Is it because there's someone hiding there I'm only 15 I would try to go down there idk
@@Ashes449 it could just be nothing but for me it's preference cause anyone can be there or maybe you need help with something. it's been almost 2 years since I last went to these stations so idk, things can change
1:13 WORKER!
Dont forget City hall Loop when the 6 does its Layup
It's not abandoned abandoned it's just not for passenger use cause they still clean and maintain it and they do some tours now and then and the tracks are used by all 6 trains to turn around
@@teyshaunevelyn1755 No nobody goes on it
If nobody touches it then nothing will happen to it
OOOOO, Abandoned stations with creepy music in background, very Scary
😂😂
Great job getting the footage. The music is perfect to go with these abandoned haunted stations. How did you manage to get in there to get the footage?
This is what the democratic party is like.
The photos were taken online from Google images
They also abandoned the🚇 $1.50 train fare & $5 fun pass...👻👻👻
Creepy and awesome at the same time! 👍
🎯🎯
This video is nostalgia to me.
I. Must say,as nyc transit personal,for the last 40 years,very well done.this is prob the best video ive seen on the topic of.i.recall that old aquaduct platform well, Patrick's Swayze filmed "Ghost" there.Great job
The New York City metro appear exactly as I saw them since the last time I made visit....the only difference are the missing carts from the Bruce Willis depictions of the metro.
A portent of THINGS TO COME.
The abandoned New York stations are creepier than London’s abandoned stations
Pfft, just the abandoned ones?
@@arifakyuz7673 😂
Brings back memories.
Mom took me with her shopping. We took the IRT from Sterling Street to Nevens often.
I remember the store
A & S had an entrance directly to the subway.
Was that Nevens St? i
The entrance to the basement of A&S (now Macy's) is at the Hoyt St. eastbound platform. I believe it may still be open.
It's just so interesting because these stations were going before I was even born
Caution: Do not watch at night and alone Side Affects may include feeling like you’re being Watched,peeing yourself, Night terrors and nightmares.
There is also the Myrtle Ave station on the BMT subway north of DeKalb and the South Ferry loop.
Oh, that's just totally spooky!
5/6/18.....Do homeless & druggies & runaways live in here? Aren't these closed stations locked?
I'm sure they find some way.
They go though the train tracks watch urban nyc you will find out
The Broadway/Lafayette stop used to be filled with the homeless, even thought it wasn’t abandoned. There is an abandoned station on the mezzanine at the 74/Broadway station in Queens that is rumored to have been designed with the idea of running an abandoned extension to LaGuardia Airport but never developed.
The title is a bit misnamed. Not all the stations are completely abandoned. Some of the photos show abandoned platforms of stations which are actually open.
I do miss this old canal street stations :( :( :(
At 2:04 starts showing Bergen lower (G/F), not 9th Ave (D), at 2:15 starts showing 9th Ave again
What happened to Roosevelt Ave. on the Queens Blvd. line?
It’s still opened
There is a station in the lower level. It is unused.
exbusdriver53 still open but There is an abandoned upper level so that was for the IND second system look it up online there’s a whole article about

I know they're just big, empty spaces, but something about abandoned subway platforms just freaks me the fuck out.
The abandoned stations need to be put back in service..... There is no need for this at all.
it would be useless for some like worth street
@@LeJ3n021 same for 18th Street and 91st Street.
No mercy just kicked me in the chest
91 Street, 18 Street, Worth Street are the Only Abandoned Stations they have.
Awwww!! That’s super interesting!
Culver shuttle is a useful and bad line
I like this video! Have added you. Thanks for sharing.
What was the significance of the Special cars and the people on them?
The fact that canal street doesn’t look like that on the J/Z line anymore, oddly makes me sad
Facts. Canal St looked a lot more interesting.
Creepy to me…😮😨
Interesting, especially the one at 42 street
Ya like look at the 42 street,it looks like where in the 1970s lol
They look better than the active ones
October 31, 2019
I didn't know they closed Nevins street I've been gone from NY for a long time i know they said they closed a lot of stations after 911 but damn they closed city hall station? I'm glad i moved to many weird changes and its more people then ever before. I think of that movie Soylent Green
Keith B some of those stations are open
SHSH Some in Congress & White House might be inspired to imitate Soylent Green.
Isnt there a nevins sreet till this day 4 1 2 idk whatelse??
The only closed the lower level of nevins, upper is still in use
Its accessible through that green door pictured in this slide show, that can be seen in the underpass between the eastbound and manhattan bound platform
you forgot
IRT Lexinghton Ave Line
Abandoned City Hall Station
Nevins Street is Still a Station but the mta wanted to abandon that old station
Edit:The Stations Look the same as the real Stations
Cool video and more videos of the r211 when is comes in to service
I wouldn’t consider either Nevins St lower level or City Hall (BMT) lower level “abandoned since unlike the other stations mentioned, those stations never saw any passenger service at all and in the case of Nevins, no track was ever laid there.
You forgot 76 street station it’s really rare it was only open for one month it was opened in 1949 it was only one stop built after Euclid Avenue I know all about that’s why there’s buffers at the end of it I and a track that leads to Grant Avenue as well the yard
Finally, someone else on TH-cam who knows about 76th street.! You're right about it being open for just a month, but it was 1948 not 1949.. I've seen several fake photos regarding the station circulating on the web, but theres a real one showing 76th St. on a switchboard. Plus there's that pesky signal light thats facing the wrong way.
darth ken81 Yeah I saw images of it online too it’s because 76 Street was used as a train terminal because the wall ended and there was meant to be an extension to Cambria Heights 229 Street
uh you guys do know that the whole “76 Street was only open for a month” was just a hoax online right? As well as the photoshopped images that proves the stations existence. However you’re not wrong about the walls near the storage tracks. Who knows, maybe 76 St does exist👀
@@fh4709 done more research about it I found out it was only open for a month and there’s only one image of the station being open and it looks too old to be Photoshop I found it on a website Those tracks 100% exist they just covered them up
@@Motorman_G no, 76 Street was NEVER opened. As i said that was just a hoax by some guy in the internet and he even admitted to it as well. And that picture of an R10 at 76 Street IS a photoshop of a R10 B train approaching 7th Avenue. Sorry to tell ya but 76 Street may not exist. We don’t have proof since the station never opened to the public
3:32 M trains used to go there??
Nasir Goldbourne Brown (M) Trains
Nasir Goldbourne the M train used to go Past Broad Street onto the R line Past Whitehall Street But it no longer does
Yeah, in 2010, they joined part of the brown M line with the V line and created the Orange M line.
That's very sad.
Cool video blog post on the old train station
You forgot a few spots.....East 180th St. (2/5 lines) just east of current station (platform is now a transit police station).....Roosevelt Ave terminal (in mezzanine of current station...behind a transit police station)....South Ferry loop (1/5 lines)....Anderson/Jerome Aves (6th/9th Ave "El"/aka Polo Grounds Shuttle)...Gun Hill Road lower level (3rd Ave "El")....Myrtle Ave./Broadway upper level (Myrtle Ave "El")....Myrtle Ave (Northbound only....Between De Kalb Ave & Manhattan Bridge).....Court/Schermerhorn St.....(abandoned 1946.....used for movie shoots....now NYC Transit Museum).....Hoyt/Schermerhorn St.... (the 2 platforms against the outer walls.....abandoned 1946.....STILL used for film/TV shoots).....by the way.....retired motorman here.....
Very fascinating to see and if you have more please upload.
What's the name of the train car at 2:11
R11
1:02 I've Actually Heard Of The Abandoned Lower Level At 42nd Street. But It Sure Gives Me The Creeps.
I’ve been there
If these MTA Stations Are Abandoned I'll Clean Up Everything And Make A Little Rebuild
3:36 Isn't that the N/Q Canal Street?
When they did construction in the 90s
Yes
To be exact, it's the lower level leading to the Manhattan Bridge. This was when the Broadway BMT line was temporarily cut off from the bridge for track rebuilding. It has since reopened.
Saul Schlapik Yes exactly they are working on the Manhattan Bridge on both sides in the late 80s They did the IND (B) (D) then the BMT (N) (Q) and again in the mid 2000s they did work on the IND Side The reconstruction of Manhattan Bridge was due to one train we’re on the bridge the bridge shook in the water like move side to side
Yes that is very true
It's so depressing. BUT(!!!) The Bowery station on the BMT Jamaica-Nassau Street line has been renovated and reopened.
I thought this was the lower level, not the upper
Canal street was reopened on the nassu line to
@@Explosivediarrhea69420 Canal Street on the J and the Bowery were reconfigured into single island platform stations.
As cool as the photos are, they have me thinking:
1. They should have kept that shuttle between Ditmas & 9th. They could have improved it like they did with Prospect Park's. My opinion is they used the fiscal crises of the 70s as an excuse to demolish it.
2. Why can't they renovate, repair, and reopen Bergen St too?
3. I wish they had built and opened S.4th St. It would only be a stub, but IMO, at least it would be a connection to the Bway and 6th Ave lines.
3. I wish they would wash the graffiti off Worth, 18th, and 91st Stations at least ONCE a year. (Suggestion: clean them and make them emergency evacuation stations.)
Well, the stations are abandoned anyways. Why scrub graffiti off obsolete stations?
5:03 looks kinda new but on future is abandoned
@CrappyDreams yeah they do. been there and saw workers walking around
Why were they abandoned?
3:35 They just left all of that crap onto the tracks?
RainbowRailroadCrossing nah they cleaned it up
Station still in use, that was when it was being rebuilt
Nice I’m glad it got reused and it’s great hearing that it can serve customers
BTW They will make plans for City Hall. In a few years, remove city hall and change the music.
i remember on the manhattan bridge west side when going into canal street first the turn then the stop then the express . but sometimes chambers street the MTA ripped up the tracks on the liwee level canal street all the wsy over the bridge to righr before dekalb. street
Nevins St. no longer exists?
Is sad all the Mta Law But I'm not crying
This Is Scary Should be Rated PG-13
Canal St and Bowery isn't abandoned?
Pixelshine I see u everywhere
@@witheredfait omg bruh
@@Flash_Warn1ng well, some parts of Canal and Bowery are abandoned actually. At Canal Street on the J, there is another platform next to the one that is currently in use however after rebuild, they have abandoned that platform, you can still get a glimpse of it from the station by looking at the Brooklyn bound track and same goes for Bowery too! Bowery also has and abandoned platform next to the one currently in service
Is there any reason the 42nd Street Port Authority Bus Terminal Lower Level can't be reused? I know the reasons the others were closed.
DTD110865 Not only would it serve no purpose, but also they partly demolished it to make way for the 7 extension to Hudson Yards. The lower level is still there and accessible but its split into two sections now because the 7 runs through it. Also there’s alot of sludge down there and stinks. Also it’s dusty
@@fh4709 Stinks?
@@Ashes449 it’s an underground area with no ventilation that hasn’t been touched for decades. I’m sure you wouldn’t find the smell pleasant.
Are any of these pictures yours?
no
I have often wondered if any homeless person was clever enough to find a "nook" to live in on one of these stations. I'm sure quite a few have.
Fact: 9th avenue lower level was used for a movie
How do you forget the most famous abandoned station.
Like broklim brodg city hall
@@birdjudey4751 *brookyln bridge
Which of those are accessible in 2019, without a tour group
Where is 76th st?
You forgot the Hoyt-Schermerhorn side platforms and the Court Street station
giobbistar21 brought exactly true they forgot the middle platform for 59 st Columbus Circle which is my station because I live in midtown
That's where they shoot Michael Jackson video, also movies.
Glendene Carter Yeah they shot Michael Jackson’s video at Hoyt-Schermerhorn it was for the song I’m Bad
Isn’t the court street station the museum of trains or smth??
i like it
You forgot the Abandoned City Hall Station
what about the city hall looop?
You will find the dead end is there too in Canal Street
Most of the people found the rabbit hole and how they played the rabbit hole goes to some times that they know something in the past some pictures and videos and sometime that many people well you know the best because everyone like to have a nice adventure and sometimes that Avengers that always juicy discovered something old abandoned and forgotten about it this is for everyone like to have a to travel easy sometimes it's very difficult and sometimes it could get well trouble is everyone noticed and specially some time that anyone love to travel of somewhere abandoned forgotten button but it will never forgotten by that many people is still login on they different logs is the ways that everyone noticed something and people pass it on and everyone will love to travel starting well new but also everyone need to be well safe
Great places to film an apocalyptic movie.
Does the PABT still have that station to this day
The lower level
Yeah the lower level
It was destroyed for the 7 train
@@ericjello6204 yes they still do have the lower level station in today’s world though it’s split in two sections because it was partly demolished for the 7 extension to 34 St Hudson Yards. You can still access it from the tracks but its covered in sludge and it stinks! Also its dusty
@@fh4709 but how do you get to that station
0.44 Where is this one? I am a tourist, I want to find
some of these places
IW X You’re a tourist you’re literally get arrested because tourists are dumb and always walk slow in New York
Ya don't bud, unless you know about the tunnels and system like the "people" do.
@@TheStig_TG The joggers?
@@iwx2672 Criminals, Homeless, Spray painters
You shouldn’t go down as a tourist, get to know NYC a bit and know subway etiquette. The station u want to get into requires track walking on LIVE tracks with a third rail.
Cool
and there is an abandoned station right after dekalb avenue not on the eastside but as the train was going towards manhattan on the westside after dekalb avenue a train The QB.would switch tracks and head down a porter hole where the station was
Forgot about Myrtle /Flatbudh!
Why is Bergen street lower level abandoned?
Aaron Samuel because it was meant for express trains around the 1960’s and 70’s but due to low ridership, it got closed down
At least express trains still pass by it.
