    Far Rockaway Station used to connect to what is now NYCT A line terminal at Mott Avenue.
    Trains entering close behind trains leaving Jamaica Station is a daily occurrence...

      Yet and in 2016 farockaway had the option to reconnect due to fundings and large investors but the politician and board members of that district turn it down . What is being built now is housing development

    Far Rockaway is my home station. But I haven't used it much in the past few years so I haven't been on these new trains. They look like the old ones but with some added features.

    (7:08 and Long Beach) Very Nice Video. I think Far Rockaway has its own way of sometimes being crowded and sometimes being very empty, such as the Long Beach or West Hempstead Branches.
    Edit:
    8:07 Not only is it interesting because its so close to another train, but its another M9, thats pretty sick

  • @irt3rdavenueel172
    @irt3rdavenueel172 Před 2 měsíci

    The problem with the M9s is there’s no door closing warning signal directly next to the automatic sliding door so one thing that they should look into is adding them. Also the only thing that’s ridiculous is that the LIRR’s route announcements are outdated because they use the announcement signal before announcing the current station the destination they’re going to and the next station that will come up so that’s something that they should change by getting rid of the announcement signal before announcing the route so they can continue to compete with MNRR or MNCR at all times.

    I live in Woodmere. The reason the line was so empty is because the neighborhoods the Far Rockaway branch services are VERY orthodox Jewish, and people don't travel or work on Saturdays.

  • @RailfanJourneys

    LIRR is my home road. I've rode in the M9's a few times, and the most notable thing now as opposed to riding the M7's is you can actually see out of the windows. Most of the M7's lexan windows are hazed over, particularly on the south side of the train as the equipment is never turned. Great video.
