It's almost hard to imagine that this system was running 100 years ago. Like, they barely had cars and radio was still sort of new back then. Crazy.
They had cars way back in the 1910s.
The first Subway cars were built I 1902
They built a ton of railroads and elevated lines before the subway opened.
@@robotx9285 Exactly. The 2nd Ave, 3rd Ave, 6th Ave, 9th Ave, Myrtle Ave, Fulton St, 5th Ave and Lexington Ave Els all predates the first subway line (IRT) in NYC.
Not to mention the predecessors to today's West End, Culver, Sea Beach and Brighton lines:
Brooklyn, Bath & Coney Island Railroad → Brooklyn, Bath & West End Railroad → West End Line (D Train)
Brooklyn, Flatbush & Coney Island Railroad → Brooklyn, Flatbush & Brighton Beach Railroad → Brighton Line (B/Q Trains)
New York & Sea Beach Railroad/Railway → Sea Beach Line (N Train)
Prospect Park & Coney Island Railroad → Culver Line (F Train)
@Addrell Coleman lol
I enjoyed this video! I have 2 suggestions:
1. A 4 train accident that occurred at Fordham Road in 2000.
2. A 6 train derailment at Hunts Point in 1996.
According to something I read in a book, the train ahead of the train involved in the derailment was being turned back north due to a delay in Bronx Park (180th Street) bound service. The switch wasn't spiked since the train behind the involved train was also going to be turned back north. Many years later, a similar incident happened at Nostrand Junction aka Rogers Junction where a Flatbush bound train derailed when the switch moved under the 9th car of a Flatbush Avenue bound train. Switch trouble was the cause there.
42 Street is the IRTs’ zone-stop invading it, BMT. IND keeps its distance.
😂
3:02 You can see car #6666 if you pause it at the time stamp mentioned
You should try the Ninth Avenue derailment and malbone street wreck.
Wow thanks for sharing. Everyday we ride the subway system, we don't realize how vulnerable we are when anything could happen at any given time. We just have to pray 🙏 that we get to our destination safely.
Love this Series!
Thanks!
And that's why NYC MTA switched to metal cars instead of wood
Wooden cars had already been outlawed from use in the subway by federal law long before this accident happened and even before that were removed from New York subway tunnels by order of the state PSC. The train involved in the accident was made up of steel cars.
@@1575murray ehh still that's why the changed just imagine if the wood cars was in this wreck would been even more deaths
@@GoldenOne131 I believe the Malbone Street Tunnel wreck on the old BRT in 1918 involved wooden gate cars. There are pictures showing the cars after the wreck. They speak for themselves as to the efficacy of wooden cars.
@@1575murray In fact, the first train on the opening day of the IRT was made up of all steel cars.
@@GoldenOne131 If I remember correctly, wooden cars were taken off the subway because of the fear or fires in the tunnel. The wood cars were originally ordered because no rail car builder wanted to experiment with building an all-steel car. I believe the PRR was engaged to design a steel car that would meet the weight needs of the subway.
Wow this was very interestingly good to know! Now I've learned something new today!
Glad you enjoyed!
@@MysticTransit 😚 😀 😊 😇
I OPERATED A LIGHT 5 CAR TRAIN WHICH DERAILED AS I CROSSED THE DOWNTOWN EXPRESS TO LOCAL SWITCH SOUTH OF
TIMES SQUARE SOMETIME DURING THE 1980s. I WAS A MOTOR INSTRUCTOR ORDERED TO SUPERVISE THE MOVE. SINCE IT INVOLVED A NEW DEVICE
CALLED "CAWLEY WHEELS", I WOULD NOT ALLOW THE MOTORMAN TO OPERATE THE TRAIN.
AS I MOVED THE TRAIN
(LESS THEN 5 MILES PER
HOUR) OVER THE SWITCH, THE CAWLEY
WHEELES UNDER ME
DERAILED. NO ONE INJURED. ENTIRE WEST SIDE SHUT DOWN FOR MAYBE
FIVE HOURS.
SIGNED: OLD C/R, M/M
MOTOR INSTRUCTOR.
Could you do the Moshulu Pkwy wreck of 1952 next?
I'll take a look at it and consider it for the next Tales from the Subway video.
There was a wreck at Mosholu Parkway? I have never heard of that
@@coolboss999 Yes there was a wreck at moshulu pkwy but details will be saved until the next Tales from the Subway Video.
@@BronXLimited AFAIK, it involved two equipment trains being put into service from Mosholu Yard.
@@pbatommy Yes it did but one train was going to go in-service.
I REALLY love this page.
That accident was absolutely horrific!
Hey there buddy. Glad seeing you again as always.
And some of these crashes happened in August, like the 1991 4 train crash,the malbone street wreck,and the Times Square derailment.
Your videos are so great.
Glad you like them!
Awesome
Amazing series
A really short video but under standed everything good job
I really enjoy your videos
I love this series (:
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MAN
Thanks
By the way why do you call the (D) That One
Because PAUSE. lol
(D)elta is the phonetic name used internally for the (D), just like (W)hiskey for the (W), (F)oxtrot for the (F), and (B)ravo for the (B).
(Q) Should Be Quarter
@@MysticTransit oh ok
Vids are hitting.. On point....
Great video bro ⚡️ 🔥 🚇
Thanks 💯
@@MysticTransit You’re welcome bro 👍
Can you do the 2013 Spuyten Duyvil derailment on Metro North’s Hudson line when a Shoreliner locomotive derailed on the way heading to Grand Central Terminal from Poughkeepsie as it derailed in The Bronx at Spuyten Duyvil
My grandmas uncle Georges Fry died in this wreck. He is buried at Cemetery of the Holy Rood.
Will you be covering the Nevins street wreck?
Learning something new every time
Congratulations you had 10K
This is why the accident happened so it was all the way to Watson Avenue then it crashed into another train and a face was hole smasher and with the train that happened. It was telling us that the face I had a whole smash.
Aidos two trains that crash I see because this is crazy and I can’t do that with the R211 T
The thing is that a lot of people don’t know about this but know about the Union square crash and the Malcom’s wreck
3:25 “I’am Learning what in 1928 was week“ But my English is suck.
Scary I have to work the 3 every Sunday on the pms
Amazing job
Thanks!
I’ve been waiting for this video because no one made a video on it
I can't believe there was subways in nyc over 100 years ago
Even though this is a tragedy, but kudos to people 100 years ago for building and maintaining the subway so efficiently
1:23 The Washington Metro route map is still visible ! This way, you'll know how to get out of this wreck !!??

You know think about it,all of these MTA Crashes happend a round the 1990s,and the 1900.Think about it is this some kind of MTA Cure?
When do we get a video of the SIR?
cool video and have more video to come
While so many people in the city in 1928 or very poor most had respect for their fellow riders + respect for the system in general
1:48 was that guy double looking you? Smh
Cool video how ever I got it by a tornado 🌪 on Monday
Where is the MTA subway cars
Bruh... why does the accident happen on my birthday well not the year but the month
What was the most recent derailment?
Can you do a video on the Melbourne wreck?
Do you mean the Malbone Street Tunnel Wreck?
@cats0182 Yes, my bad autocorrect
Did the accident cars have anti-climbers???
I thought that those devices are meant to prevent telescoping
They might've not. I'm not too educated on the IRT's rolling stock of the time.
They did. Then I guess you start learning about the original Subway cars.
Wmata is telescoped
R.I.P operator hope he is safe
He is dead by now
aww
@@Harry-transit You do know this happened in 1928, even if he survived, he would of died of old age.
The operator was fine ,the accident happened to the ninth, and tenth cars.
Dang
R62 1 train
firstt
I gave u a like but this could have been so much more enjoyable with the robotic voice.
