[ Read Responses | Post a New Response | Return to the Index ] Posted by Broadway Junction on Wed Nov 12 17:15:41 2003, in response to SUBTALKERS, who did ride Sundays MOD Excursion, Please Read, I was there. I got off at Essex changed to a J and took it to Marcy where I dashed down to the street just in time to get a few pics of the train rounding the S-curve then ran back upstairs and managed to get another before it entered the station. Jumped on a J at Broadway Junction then took it to Alabama Ave then back on. I got off again at Sutphin and got back on at Woodhaven, then got off again at Metropolitan (tried to get the shot from the parking lot roof, but the sun was in a horrible place). Back on at Metro then off again at Union Turnpike then got some drinks and walked to Jamaica Yard near the back where I tried to get some photos of the train going around the loop track but because of the delays it got there too late and the lighting was horrible by the time it got there - not only was there virtually no light coming from the yard itself but the bright pink/orange streetlights over the highway (Grand Central Parkway??) which clicked on made it even worse. Got on an F which was held at Union Tpk behind an E which was waiting for the excursion train to jump in front. Caught up with it again at West 4th and got some more photos before it pulled off.
