Wow. A conductor who spoke clearly and made himself understood! Hope he doesn't get fired.
Thanx. I wondered if the announcements were from the conductor or prerecord. Now I know.
Thomas Mann Union jobs dipshit. He can’t get fired unless he does something incredibly stupid. And they have securities. So it’s definitely a permanent job.
fred They’re keeping their 3rd generation metric units, protocol are always gonna be traditionally.
@@augsnow2067 sarcasm isnt your strongpoint is it?
@fred He can’t be fired cause theres this train conductor who raps every time the train reaches to the station.
The announcer on this train did a great job.
yeah no kidding, if i was the operator knowing me id just slur my speech and stutter lol
The new York city subway system is so amazing. Some of the trains leaving Manhattan go under the river, others like the J train go over the river. What an engineering marvel in new York, with all those tall buildings, suspension bridges, and tunnels that go under rivers. Concrete jungle.
Immigrants eating Boogres 🤧 571-ZCW 👈🏾
Indrukwekkende infrastructuur inderdaad.
4:09 - The old tracks that used to go to the Manhattan Bridge switches off to the right down that dark tunnel.
The chambers street station looks a a bomb hit it!!
OG`s Fishroom if you look closely you can see the blue walls to the left for a new bridge, they are starting a rehab project
ok its about time lol
YO WTF WHEN
"Bridge" There's no bridge being built. There can't be any time of bridge in the station, unless I'm mistaken. They're most likely cleaning and repairing the platform.
And has for...what decade is it? Easily 30 years.
48:37 is 126th street. My grandparents apartment was inside the street right in the middle. I remember as a kid we would go out just to watch the trains pass by. That was back when the tracks were still yellow instead of green. What a moment in time. RIP grandma and grandpa.
I love taking a ride around NYC on the subway system
You’re not the only one, bud. I like riding on subways and using my bike to get around the city. 🚇🚲🗽🏙🍎
Love these POVs especially when they get outside. Hope we see more in the future, especially some Bronx bound trains! Thanks Dj Hammers.
Really makes me miss living in NYC... I love watching these videos and seeing my old stops and sites.
Can’t just be me who’s well impressed at how the announcer nailed ‘Kosciuszko Street’🤙
He said it correctly. I caught that.
I love the run between Marcy and Broadway Myrtle - I love the train running fast! 🏃🏽♀️💨
That one dude at Marcy Avenue lol
"Hi, TH-cam!"
Which dude? I missed it...the wino in the beginning or the weird dude , smiling and taking pics at the end of the platform?
@@fbernard08 May have been a rail fan :) I too take pictures of trains and trams and lots do.
at least we know he's happy
thats good, it's better to see somebody smiling then trying to look cool and frown
@@fbernard08 16:22
Gotta love the JZ line, the old stations, the old rolling stock, the Williamsburg Bridge views, and it’ll be the only line to use the old signaling once all CBTC is done
why would it still use old signals once cbtc is done?
@@metromannyc6033 what does cbtc mean or stand for
CJ The Reactor Communication-Based Train Control.
@@metromannyc6033 lol who cares
why do you always reply to my comments?
The J/Z line is one of the most interesting lines in NYC! Thanks for the video DJ Hammers!
Damn I miss the trains and I miss New York also. I used to live in New York before. I live in Florida now.
Even after the new tech trains take over, it’ll still be my favorite line! Hope I can be a train operator on the line someday...
if you do get a job at the MTA then you get about 63 sick days a year or possibly even more since everyone there is in a union
I dont know since I dont work for the MTA but here in london if you work for TfL, work for a bus operator which runs a Tfl Operated route in your garage then you get free travel on TfL Services so I assume that if you work for the MTA then you get free travel on MTA Services
@Derrick Tan You get an employee I.D metrocard that lets you into the system for free. All nyct subway lines and bus routes are free except express buses and you get an option of either metro north to be free or L.I.R.R you cant choose both.
R 4 2 Sorry to hear about your death..
This is an excellent video! You captured virtually all of the great scenery and footage of the JM and z line. It's also great that you were able to do it on an R32 which has no since been retired sadly. Kudos to you for standing through the duration of that entire trip from beginning to end and capturing an important part of history of one of New York city's notable Subway and elevated lines.
Did they replace the R32 cars with something the same size (length and width) and number of doors? Given what I've heard about how certain lines and stations are paired based on car design, I imagine they didn't have much leeway there.
As a kid growing up in Williamsburg in the 60's / 70's (by the Hewes St station), this line fascinated me. When you exit the Chamber St station, the track that goes straight actually connected with the N line that goes over the Manhattan Bridge. Back in the day, that train was called the Nassau Loop. Also, the cavernous area to the right at the Delancey St station was the trolley terminal. Great vid- many thanks, Sir Dj Hammers!
I always wondered about that area of the Delancy Street station! I used that station a lot when I lived there! I was always fascinated by the subway and the various sites of former platforms. I always wanted to explore the freedom tunnel but never did it.

I remember that area My Dad (recently passed away) Worked the J line for nearly 35 years showed me that old terminal
I think the J and A routes are my favorites at the moment. Hi from Chicago,IL
Probably the coolest operator I've heard so far on the J. Excellent video,DJ Hammer 🔨 👏
thank you so much to the uploader of this video it is such a beautiful insight into new york city for those of us who can't visit
Anybody on this page remember when the J train went to 169th Street on Jamaica Avenue?
hy . this cab view are absolutely fantastic , great view especially outside , great video quality . thank you for sharing , keep up , it is so relaxing and enjoyable to watch , thank you again.
Father ( recently passed away ) worked as a motorman /engineer on this line for 35 years
The thing about the J is that it seems like there’s a station every 8 blocks going through Brooklyn, which makes for a slow go between Manhattan and Queens.
The old Canal platform almost visible at 4:52!
Thank you for sharing this video with our fellow New Yorkers! Great job!👍🏻
I miss the old Jamaica stations to 168th st. Still the best line in the fleet!!!
4:52 if you look to your far right you can see the abandoned canal st tracks

16:24 started right here, now that's a express ride. J trains are faster than the 3 train's and 7 train's.
New cab video!! LOVE these - thanks as always for uploading them!
Glad you enjoy them!! 😁
To be technically accurate, it isn’t a cab video, but a video taken out of the passenger-accessible front window. Anyone can have this view if they ride the J train 😊
Dj Hammers And an amazing view it is too. Thanks for clearing that up - and thanks again for all your uploads!
I love RFW videos!
Wow. The J train is a very slow going over the bridge. It’s going to be hell in April when the L shuts down
shof515 no
props to this conductor
I enjoyed operating a train on that line. Most of it being outdoors. It was great.
This is so soothing, I put this on when I can’t sleep
LOVE this video. The photography is REALLY clear and sharp. What kind of camera did you use?
Fun fact the rapper JZ was inspired the name of this JZ train if you don’t believe me go go Supertoe and as well tom Delgado it’s cool
I actually used to ride this line when I lived in Brooklyn back in 2001 . I miss living on Logan Street . Come to think of it, I miss living in NYC period .
But do you miss the taxes ? I love new York too but it's expensive.
@@j340_official to be honest with you, it seems like taxes are getting higher every where you go . In fact, everything seems to be getting higher nowadays . I now live in the south and a one bedroom apartment goes for about $850 a month . Sad thing is, I remember when that same one bedroom apartment used to cost about $350 a month to rent and it wasn't that long ago .
@@JamesDLegend2070 fair point, there is inflation no doubt. but $850 is still far better than the $3000+ in Manhattan.
@@j340_official apartments in Manhattan are $3000+ but, the scary part is that, there are one bedroom apartments around here that can go for $2100+ . It depends on which neighborhood you go to . And, we don't have half the stuff that Manhattan has . I say that to say this: I pay less rent now than I paid when I was up there but, there's really nothing to do here . It's kind of worth it to pay those high taxes because of everything that you have access to .
@@JamesDLegend2070 true that New York has hella things to do. A lot of culture. No place like New York. But the thing with life is: tradeoffs. Unless you’re super rich.
That's sooo cool. To see the subway this way
16:29 the guy lol
THat KEZ 5 graffiti bombing at 19:40 really made the video worth watching. I hope to ride this train one day.
You can tell the announcer loves his job.
Can you do a full ride on the q train from 96st 2nd ave to Coney island stillwell ave
can you follow the train CJ?
@@simuresquiner3633 I will when I start playing GTA sa
i would have though they would atleast have some decent headlights on the damn trains you can barely see anything aside from a strip of light on the walls.
16:27 Oh cool a fellow rail fan!
dude please make a video on the L train. i'm counting on you. thanks !
No because of the MTA fucking the l service
Trains on the L have a transverse cab making the POV impossible !
Riding on the "J" into Brooklyn in the 1970s was like a 60/40 chance of being a statistic but iIm still alive,Miss the graffiti , broken vending machines & single watt bulbs. lol
I love the j/z line
Me too
I know right
I hate the 4 and q
non of these stations appear to be handicapped accessible. i am considering amove to nyc at some point. but i ama monopod. aka one leg. so am wc bound. (wc = wheelchair)
NOT all of the stations are ADA accessible, therefore I suggest you go to MTA website www.mta.info and download a PDF of the subway map and study which ones are ADA. MTA is slowly renovating the stations so that they ALL will be.
look at the cloud patterns at minute 33:00
Nessuna Metropolitana al mondo ha lo stesso fascino di quella di New York. -
No subway in the world has the same charm as that of New York.
12:03 that r42 J and Z at the same time lol
Omg yess. I always take the J
Thanks for posting! Seems absurd just to run EXP between Marcy and Myrtle. Why not all the way to Bway Junction?
I agree with you. They should run express to Broadway junction
Um no. My stop is right after Myrtle. I hate walking through myrtle. The Z train should run express tho
dgigante There is no other service that can replace J/Z service between Myrtle and Broadway Jct. There is skip-stop Service there though.
Many years ago there were more services available on that line. Myrtle Ave trains originated at Chambers, Jamaica trains had express and local service originating at Broad, Chambers, or Canal, and a Broadway Brooklyn local originating at Canal Street, some of which went to the Canarsie Line. Because of all these services, some trains ran express from Marcy all the way to Broadway Junction.
It used to when I was a kid. The train was called the JJ and it ran to 168th Street but was torn down in the late 70s when they built the tunnel to Jamaica Center. There used to be a K train that ran local to Broadway Junction and the JJ would do the full express run.
Just subscribed and began watching your videos. They are awesome. Thanks for sharing. Are you the driver?
He's filming. He's not the motorman of the train.
I still need a full R42 RFW from Broad Street to Jamaica Center. How many R42 8-car sets are left on the J/Z now?
I already have a R32 roundtrip RFW and an R42 RFW from Jamaica Center to Broad Street, so I need that one last RFW to complete the set.
Since my last ride on the R42 in December 2017, there were ONLY 40 cars left on this line. (5 eight-car sets)
The elevated portion of the route is a scenic trip through local history!
08:55 is there a dude randomly taking a nap on the top left?
2013 was the last time i came on this train going to school
How hell do people do graffti in subway?
the "J" train is actually a local, not an express. The "Z" train is an express. Please don't make mistakes like this please? :( I'm sorry you had to read this.
Both run as a skip-stop service. Whatever stations the Z doesn't stop at the J will and vice versa.
The J actually is express between Myrtle Avenue and Marcy Avenue every weekday during rush hours. The Z is also express but it skips some stops that the J train stops at.
I'm wondering if the speed limit during the Manhattan portion is 25mph
How old is the J/M/Z? And how does Myrtle ave Broadway work? And Broadway Junction? And there is an elevated ghost track at Alabama Ave?
nyrmetros so many mysteries...
Catch them before they're gone :(
On the plus side the R32 and R42 are planned to go to other lines so easy RFWs on those
What does RFW stand for?
Railfan Window
beautiful video, congrat !!
when you are entering the tunnel to stunter blvd jfk airport you can see the lirr that mean that you are near to jamica
great to hear clear announcements but why are ny subway trains so slow?
It’s because of speed limits and it’s aging infrastructure
Chambers street station needs a whole face lift...I know the MTA got millions of dollars to fix it smh
nice unfortunately this soon to be
a thing of the past when the R42's and R32'S are all almost gone now
The R32s are gone from east New York yard now,soon R42s will be out of east New York yard to run on the b,g,q,a lines.
They will commit extinct
Yeah... I grow slightly annoyed when an R32/42 comes up on the J because those trains seem to have an issue with leaking. But I'm gonna miss those historical artifacts when they're gone for good.
At 1:27 and 31:05 conductor seems uncertain about calling pattern - error or last-minute change of plan?
Also express track between Myrtle/Bwy and Chauncey St appears unused - deferred maintenance or just not needed?
officialmcdeath It is unused but the occasional out of service train or full service train (it’s rare) do use those tracks to skip those in between stops. I thought those express tracks weren’t used until one day a train was flying down them😂
Awesome Railfaning!
49:15 + Egads, that's a lot of lights in that tunnel. Exactly WHAT are we illuminating here?!? (More succinctly... WHY?)
Norwood Ave with G ma. Good times.
It's a great video.
However the camera should be outside in front and not behind dirty glass for the HD effect 😁
They are almost completely gone from the J line due to R179 and CBTC i think
C Train Productions That and plans for BMT East to be all NTT during the L train shutdown
TheRailLeaguer wow...thanks for that Info
superb footage excellent
They should extend express service to Eastern Pkwy.
An express service between Myrtle Avenue and Eastern Pkwy would be unfeasible unless you want those stations to service every 8-10 minutes (6-7.5 trains per hour).
If you want express service on this stretch at decent headways, you would need to double the service between Myrtle Avenue and Eastern Pkwy, which is impossible due to the M using the local tracks north of Myrtle Avenue, unless you want Myrtle Avenue riders to also receive poor service levels (the capacity limit on the Williamsburg Bridge is 24 trains per hour).
For this reason, it is better to build the South 4th Street Subway so that the 3-track Jamaica Avenue El section over Broadway is replaced with 4 track underground subways offering express service on both Myrtle Avenue and along Broadway.
40:45 Spider-Man’s high school on the left
20:20 STAND CLEAR THE DOORS PLEASE!!!
Somebody doesn't know how to wait the next train! Wow!
The conductor made it clear.
1:30 I don't think they should adorn the walls with capital letters (like "F" at the Fulton St. station) which could confuse riders wanting the "J" train, etc.
Ah so you are the man that put his go pro on the front window while I operated?
@12:35 Those signals seem rather closely spaced...
they are timer signals. to ensure the operator doesn't exceed a certain speed, the lights jump up after a couple of seconds. Spacing them close allows for this practice to be successful
Eu fico louco com essa lentidão... ainda mais comparando com a velocidade do Metrô aqui de São Paulo.
18:41 my old home stop, lol
Edit: HELLO LEMON (R179)
Imagine you having a dream that you’re riding down tracks and you have wheels on you’re feet and just rocketing down the line cause this is NICE!
The j and z lines use to have variety of subway cars
Dude I can see my room on this video thx. 😅😂
I grew up on the j lines
Clean RFW windows like that one are rare. I'm gonna miss the R32 when it retires. :(
Love it
It...moves...so...slowly. omg.
this was before the speed limits were raised, also the train stations are like 1-2 minutes apart from eachother, so going fast would probably make you over shoot it
So, riddle me this: Would a savvy New Yorker know to take the Express line "most of the way" toward his destination, then hop off and wait for the corresponding Local to take him those last few stops? Seems like the intended purpose of the Express/Local system, no?
Also, do all Express trains ultimately convert to Locals once they are far enough along?
majority of express trains go local after they leave the borough, the 7 express train goes local once it leave queens and goes into manhattan
shout out to NYC holla!
Shoutout to the guy taking a photo at 16:30
Damn, just throw up condos in Williamsburg 'cause it's the "it" neighborhood. Don't matter if they ugly and don't fit into the hood fabric.....! (LOL!)
This line has three pathetic sections: bridge - Marcy, Broadway jct - Alabama Ave and crescent - cypress. Each slows down the schedule significantly. Why can’t the straighten the Broadway Alabama at least?
David Wu The curves at Alabama Avenue and along Crescent Street slow down service. This should be straightened out by building a new structure over Jamaica Avenue with new stops built.
23:33 ay a R179
You people tawk funny. Chicago has automated announcements. Sounds like a GPS.
does everyone have to sound like Chicago? How boring!!!!!!
Can you do a r160 J
Is this type of train still active? Because it's really cool for an passenger.
No. The R32 is now retired for passenger service.
