I remember watching your videos when I was younger and the videos didn't have your face nor your unedited voice, these videos made me always want to go to NYC to ride the subways and made me more passionate about subway trains too. Send you a big greeting from Argentina!
The fact that you've done All Trains so many times in incredible, and you went above and beyond by calculating the costs of the cars, ferry, buses, and even the AirTrain! We appreciate your dedication to the wonderful transit community! The SSG Michael H. Ollis the SI ferry was named after was a Staten Island native who was killed at age 24 while shielding a Polish soldier from an insurgent bomber in Afghanistan in August 2013. The name Grasmere comes from the lake in England of the same name. This is because of Sir Roderick Cameron. After being knighted by Queen Victoria in June 1883, he did much traveling. It is believed that in his travels, he had visited England's Lake District of Grasmere and appropriately named his land on Staten Island, as it was reminiscent of the beautiful district. The sharp curves of the Franklin Ave Shuttle between Botanic Garden and Prospect Park is no joke! That section was home to the deadliest crash in NYC subway history called the Malbone Street wreck, as over 90 people lost their lives because a speeding train derailed in a sharply curved tunnel. This crash is what led to the BRT to phase out wooden cars. What led to this crash was a labor strike against the BRT and the BRT tried to keep service running with non-striking personnel, and decided to use Antonio Edward Luciano, a crew dispatcher with NO experience operating the line.
Oof. That's crazy. Someone commented that I actually rode the historic bit of track where the crash happened when I did All Night Trains earlier this year.
I did this in the summer of 1996 at 16 years old. My dad gave me a bunch of tokens and told me, I dont want to see you in the house this summer. Go find something to do. Gotta love NYC. 😂😂
Regarding the trolley thing you saw on Roosevelt Island, that was the elevator storehouse, as in the trolley/streetcar would stop above Roosevelt Island on the bridge, and then people would take an elevator down to the island! In 1918, the mayoral administration of John Hylan built a structure housing five or six elevators that brought cars, trucks and pedestrians to the then named Blackwell’s Island. In 1921, the name was changed to Welfare Island and finally Roosevelt Island in 1973. Here's the reason why an aerial tramway was built: The NY state government leased the island from the city in 1969 and opted to build large housing developments to transform it into a transit-oriented community. The plan was to build a subway station as the centerpiece but the station was delayed, so the temporary solution was to build the aerial tramway. The tramway would open in 1976, the station opened in 1989, but it was decided to keep the tramway. The tramway was the last to stop using tokens, as it still accepted tokens until March 2004 while the subway stopped doing so in 2003! During the 2005 NYC transit strike, the tramway was one of the few public transportation modes in the city that continued to operate
The wide yard dates all the way back to the 1882 terminus of the LIRR Rockaway Beach branch which operated until 1955. The bridge over Jamaica Bay burned in 1955 and wasn't repaired until they had the idea to extend the IND to the Rockaways in the 1960s. Then full length A trains went to Rockaway Park. They established late night shuttle service almost immediately, but only went to full time shuttle service in recent years. The station is one of the least used in the system because Belle Harbor commuters use direct express buses or Green Line Buses to Flatbush Avenue on the 2-5 as a faster way into Manhattan.
You try to make us laugh in any video, and even if it doesn’t seem funny, I laugh all the time when I watch any one of your videos. You try so hard to make the perfect videos for us, and no matter how good or bad the quality of the video is, we will still appreciate the time you took to make these videos for your viewers. Thank you. 🙏🏽
29:12 The J/M/Z run 8 cars only due to all of the stations being able to stand 8 cars only this was a thing for a very LONG time back in the 60s or 50s cant remember when they made the line lol
Btw if you guys don’t know the new R211T entered service already edit : all R160 -1 all R160 -2 trains or R160A or R160B train models either runs 10 cars or 8 cars but during the weekends M trains or shuttle service or during night service they run less then 8 cars edit number 2 : M trains don’t normally go to 57 street 6 avenue but they rerouted it to there due to construction edit number 3 : f trains now run via the E line ,there is now a f shuttle train between 21st street queens bridge to Lexington 63rd street , edit. Number 4 bro did all trains but forgot about F express and seven express and six express train😮 it’s okay ,we appreciate you hard work ,thanks for the awesome video supertoe
I don’t count express trains (except Z because it’s a different label entirely) in all trains routes because 1. They interline 100% with their local counterparts and 2. Because of their limited service I haven’t figured a way to work every express train into a route without dramatically increasing the risk of failure. I only tried to work in the F express to All Brooklyn trains because the risk was minimal
@@SuprToe Your right it can be exhausting. I started at 9AM from my home station and ended around 6PM because I had to catch the Z during PM rush hour 😴
29:00 The J/M/Z have always used 8 car R143s/R160s/R179s since they've had them. The M has to use them due to it running with the Jamaica line with the J/Z.
Buddy you are not alone. Once coming home from school we took the L train between Grand ave and Metropolitan. We ended walking the whole thing due to power outage on the L. Me or my mom and the people around us were not happy. I have been a New yorker for a long time! Lots of wierd stuff happened to me
If you pause at 4:21 you can see me with my mom and younger brother, I’m in a green coat and my brother was in a blue coat. I’ve been watching your videos since you were Mr Blue Shoes and it’s so cool to finally see you in person
The man thats been keeping me alive fore more than 7 years with the series, im happy i have seen you grown and hope you hit 100k soon. From a long lasting fan
Whenever I’m bored, I just ride some random trains and whenever I do I never experience any delays. Only time I got screw over by the mta in 2022 in the summer. I was on the G train that had it brakes activated at 21st in queens which resulted in the G being suspended from Court SQ to Bedford-Nostrand ave and the first car made it in to that station and I was on that car
Everything that touches East New York Yard has to be 8-Cars because they never extended the platforms after unification of the system like they did with the lines going to Coney Island. Prior to the 1960's Christie St Connection which merged the BMT and IND Lines, all BMT Lines, like the Q on Brighton, D on West End and F on Culver were running with only 8-Car Trains. The Lines to Coney Island had their platforms extended because they directly linked to IND Line which ran 10 Cars of the bat.
It is really rare to see the r211s cars in testing because there are in Clifton menace shop where you saw the 2 split SIR cars and they might be in there or they are a st George or tottenville.
Alright, where to now??? BUS EDITION!!! From Rockaway Park: Q35 --> Kings Plaza, B3 --> Gerritsen Av, B31 --> Gerritsen Beach, go to the very end, very peaceful, model airplane field, and a good bagel shop. Perfect for a explore the urbans video.
I once was that little kid who pulled the cord at every bus stop. Anyone living in Seattle on the 2 bus line back in the very late 00s and early 2010s probably hates me.
Knew i made the right choice subscribing this channel-you should go to stations with the same name and compare them to see how they vary, like the station or track/platform layout and whether they are accessible or not-think about 110th st or church av or 23rd st
It’s a shame you had that big delay but at least it was the only one. You otherwise had remarkable luck in catching trains. It’s a bit of a bummer that you didn’t enter the Bronx but you at least covered the other four boroughs. It would be cool to see you tackle other types of transit such as commuter ferries. I know you took one but maybe one day you’ll get to ride them all.
trains suggestion!:first you should start with rockawy parkway to the a then get of at jay st to the f and go to york st then then take a 3 min walk to the park there

You mean the BMT?
No, this was before the BMT was formed. The BMT was formed in 1923. Before the BMT, it was the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company or BRT.

@@Snowy-oq4ur No, this wreck happened before the BMT was formed. The BMT was formed in 1923, while this wreck happened in 1918.

Love you❤
28:29 Trains on the BMT Eastern Division (J)(L)(M)(Z) use 8-Car trains. The (C) uses 8-Car trains as well.
The mta tried ten cars of R46 C trains and the R211 C trains are intended to be ten cars because the c train gets crowded
@@alexthemtaandr211weatherfa2you do realize r46 can’t not be 10 cars right …

Ha! Crazy!
Suprtoe I’m actually JC on patreon and yes I understand you did not want to take the A to Columbus Circle Nobody going for so long on one train
I will

I thought it might be the same but I didn’t want to risk not shouting you out for your idea! Thanks!
Watched the whole thing, did not skip! Awesome job Suprtoe! Thank you for all the content that you make! :D

I can’t believe it’s already been 7 years when you first started All Trains

The tracks at Rockaway Park is for the A trains that terminate at Rockaway Park and don’t go back to Manhattan.

R211A’s on the A too, respectively
R311 be like:
Hey gogosuprtoe, I have a question. What is the name of the the song you used at the end of your video when you were riding the shuttle train?
the thing this channel was my childhood-
4:48 So is Everyone is Just going to ignore how the Door chime sounds like a Path Door Chime

@@alexthemtaandr211weatherfa2so underrated it’s not even funny
Did you go on the inaugural R211T?
No. A little sad. Seems like every other transit influencer knew about it except me. Weird.

R68A Q train? You might wanna check that.
If I was 100% correct all the time, it would leave you guys nothing to comment on. 😅
i lived in staten island for 3 years, and i took that train and bus mostly to transport around
Happy belated birthday @GoGoSuprtoe 🎉❤
are you planning doing all weekend trains?
Eventually
HE BACK ON THE WEEKEND

suprtoe, the Q train you took was an R46, not an R68A. Just for correction!
Thank god your back i thought you were going to retire like my other child hood youtubers
I took the D train before
1:10:36 I guess thats for the yard? + You Just missed it, the R211T Just entered service and you didn't got on. :(
Awesome video Supertoe! Also the R211T is on the C Line(the open gangway one) so you should make a video on it if possible :)

In the next video, can you try to cacth the R211 from Nostrand Av to, Far Rockaway?
Patiently waiting for Suprtoe to Visit San Francisco
