OK, I posted the first batch of NYC subway pics:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=4467
There are just a few now. I will upload more tonight. I am trying to not
only get the trains, but some good shots of the stations, turnstyles, ticket
counters, etc.
A couple of general points about the NYC stations though...they are all
somehow different. I think you would be hard pressed to come up with a
station MOC that didn't look like some station in the city. You can see from
some of the station shots, that the I beam support columns are yellow.
Others are blue. Others are bright orange. Some platforms are very narrow,
while others are quite wide. Some have a single entrance through which you
can pick up a train bound in either direction. Some have one direction/one
entrance on one corner of the street, while the opposite direction/entrance
is on the other side of the street.
I am going to try to get more shots of the trains themselves, as well as the
interiors of a couple of different lines. I will probably wait until this
weekend though so I get shots with empty cars.
Sorry for the quality, the subway tunnel is not the best lighting! If anyone
needs any specific details shot, please let me know.
