- Ever wonder why the A train is blue on the map but the 6 train is green? Or why you never see an F train on a 2 train platform? Once you learn the method behind MTA subway colors and names, the map will never look the same.
MTA: thats why you will never see a lettered train next to a numbered train
Me: Queensboro Plaza
Orwellianpro Well at Queensboro Plaza, the lines do share a platform, but do not stop at the same track. That’s why there is a separate track for each.
AWESOMEBROGAMERSF5 2 Same station, same platforms, but different tracks. The car widths are why you never see a 7 train on the N train side, and vice versa.
AWESOMEBROGAMERSF5 2 The yellow barriers are there to prevent 7 trains from stopping there, since the platform is longer than the trains themselves. It also prevents people from falling into the tracks.
@@TheRailLeaguer and w train because the W is back
@@smoochez187 True as well. However, the W is considered the N as well, except that these N trains go to Whitehall instead of the N terminal at Coney Island due to lack of space. Both lines are scheduled as one N service in the work schedules.
Just remember that a express train might skip stops while a local train doesn’t! Most trains are local trains so you don’t have to worry about it skipping your stop.
And for those that may not know, you know its express if its a diamond shape vs the circle (circles are local). However some trains may "go express" for a stop or two to get situated back in its proper timetable (due to delays and other factors)
Considering the fact that NYC has well over 8 million people, its understandable why they have an extensive complex subway system.
Yes. Meanwhile here in Mexico our subway system is simple with only 12 lines and in Mexico City there are more than 20 million people. Here the subway is property of the government and it's also very cheap, because of that I'm not surprised that we have a subway like that. Sorry for bad english.
Andres Niño Mexico City does not have 20 million people. You're talking about the whole metropolitan area. Mexico city proper has 8,851,000 as of 2010. Look it up
Andres Niño
Nyc urban area has over 22 million people
Mike Someone no
NightAvenger375
Yes
This is a great introduction to the topic! Glad the MTA is actually trying to explain things to passengers.

+William Beresford Once again, fuck off. Your comment contributes absolutely nothing of value to society. You added nothing to the conversation and educated no one. Not everyone is born in nyc. Nyc has a lot of immigrants and people from other states that have only ever used cars. The driver's license manual is also easy to read, but a lot of people can't pass their test.

@@JOHNYBOYZeven the most bare bones editors like windows movie maker can empathize narration. Computers were fully capable of doing stuff like that for decades.
Useful information for my Cities: Skylines version of New York City! Thanks for the input!
This is some what educational for me to learn more about the Subway trains, with colors and names on the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. : )
NO
people will only remember what lines they use
Unless if you're a railfan
I remember every single station in the NYC subway system
Jim Barbagallo I remember every station on N and Q lines, even I remember the transfers on weekdays, weekends and late night
Believe it or not, people used to remember them by line and company (i.e. IRT, BMT, IND).
Still confusing.
moron
Rob P true

You'll get used to it... ten years from now
Always be wary of whether you're catching a local or express train. Also be wary whether those services run express 24/7, or even if a local service doesn't run late at night. Some services may have multiple destinations in one direction, so make sure you get on the correct Downtown (southbound) A, Uptown (northbound) E, Uptown 5 or Uptown N -- they don't all head to Lefferts Blvd, Parsons/Archer, Dyre Ave, or Astoria-Ditmars respectively. When entering a local-only station, make sure you're using the correct entrance, otherwise you may have to travel a few stops in the opposite of your intended direction, to get to an express station where the mezzanine allows you to go to the other side.
Being in Brooklyn & Queens the first 6 years of my life, I basically grew up on the A,C and E trains. I had a feeling it went that way.
Technically the 42nd St S is IRT, the other two are BMT/IND.
Yes
Actually the other two at both IND trains since the FS is a part of the Sixth Avenue lines, and the RS is a part of the Eighth Avenue Lines. (As far as I know at least)
Thanks for the informative video. Learned something new!
It’s good that the branches are also coded with numbers and letters, here in London they just name different destinations or sometimes add (via x) to indicate different route branches within the same line which quite confusing sometimes
Northern line is really complex, with two central (Bank/Charing Cross) and two northern branches (Edgware/High Barnet), that can be combined in 4 ways (a northern and a central branch). The Metropolitan line has express services (called "fast" trains) with no separate numbers either.
I think the London Underground should introduce additional route numbers.
@@LunaDragofelis changed my mind😅, destination name is more intuitive and memorable and easily found on the tube map. And the express service is ONLY on the metropolitan line and ONLY during peak hours and ONLY on the weekdays. These systems is also aligned😜with the route naming system on the national rail services.
1:54 Union Square platform fillers: Im gonna stop you right there
wow, i never thought of any of this! it makes sense now. Although i have noticed that all the #-ed lines have the 3 door trains. i thought the letters and #s were randomly selected
Yes numbers have 3 doors and letters have 4.
**IRT lines
OLD COMMENT
Ya
Yeah, basically the #-ed lines use different trains because before all the transit companies merged, IRT made their own tunnels smaller so that the competition can’t bring their own trains in their tunnels.
People are saying this is confusing but if you LIVE in NYC or at least know how to ride the trains, this could actually teach some neat stuff. For example, the numbered and lettered ones represent three different companies that use to make up the MTA, in which the letters A-G represent one company and the other letters another different company.
But that aside, you May think the MTA is quite confusing, but to me I think it’s mostly because-
1. The Map is less of a diagram and more of a map. It’s intended purpose is to yes, tell you the stops but also seemingly tell you where places are relative to landmarks around the city and such (if that makes sense.)
2. And 2, the constant changing and fixing of tracks (especially on weekends where kids aren’t typically in the subway.)
So, to me at least, I think that pretty much if you got the MTA app, you’re good on updates ahead of hand (so you know if they will get in the way- in which many will not, unless it’s in Manhattan or northern Brooklyn- (like Atlantic Barclays Center).)
Also, before 1985, some lines (mainly local services) used double letters.
AA - K (discontinued 1988)
CC- C
GG - G
LL - L
QB - Q
RR - R
SS - S (SS used to mean shuttles, S meant specials)
for those of you that do not know about the nyc subway system:
-It was the first to develop a 4-track subway system. This allows express and local trains to run on separate tracks for customers to get to locations quicker and easier.
-There are many subway car prototypes that are for the BMT, IRT, and IND.
-The NYC subway system has an interesting history and features. You should learn more about it.
Lol
They could just run local trains at a higher speed with slower dwell times at stations like London. I was so surprised when i saw guards on the subway, its a metro system. Meanwhile in europe, we've got automatic trains, driverless trains, trains every 100seconds etc. Im not gonna lie having 4 tracks is clever, especially if a train brakes down etc but europe is way ahead with public transport.
@@Ethan-ik1nm more stops and lines than London so that won't work
I watched this as a 5 year old, brings back memories. I understood the first part but I didn't understand the second one.
Now I do
You were 5 years old when you first saw this? I am 21 and feel old now.
this honestly made me even more confused
shamyri yea you should be if you don’t here’s proof go to Queensboro Plaza there’s a 7 And 5 and a N and Q there all mixed up there BMT IND I just don’t get it
Denis Daily the (5) train don’t go to Queens and the (Q) train doesn’t go to Queens anymore
Never been a 5 in Queens bro LoL
You meant 7, N, R, W (replaced the Q).
@@LuisMendoza-jx4sg but they're on different tracks as the structure gauge is different. That's what the narrator meant.
The beginning doesn't actually say why they are the color they are just what route they use. She made it sound like they'd explain why blue is used for 8th ave or purple for the flushing line.
My Dad was a Conductor for NYCTA for 24 years. Worked on the IRT out of East 241st in The Bronx.
I actually saw a 7 train on the N train track but I'm not sure if it was out of service
FBI AGENT it was, it was a r62 transfer to the 6 train, the 6 train needs r62, the IRT 6 line runs better with the r62’s EDIT: when I said it was I mean like it was out of service.
Number lines can use letter lines to get to yards because the number cars are narrower. But the reverse will never happen because the letter cars are too wide to fit into a number line platform and will cause damage.
@@javie2064 read my above comment
they are also know as divisions the 1234567S(42nd street shuttle) is A Division and ABCDEFGJLMNQRWZ S(Franklin Avenue & Rockaway Park Shuttles) is the B Division.
This is interesting and nostalgic.
Mostly, yes I would say this, I’d rather catch a Express Train @ Mets-Willets Point.
(Note this is a fan account of Bart Simpson)
I remember watching this when I was a little kid I loved trains! Going back to this video after 2014 brings back so many memories.
A lettered train on a numbered platform.
Uh.. Queensboro Plaza? 😝
Um did they do wrong railings on the (N) before
the (N) and the (7) do not link tracks at that point
Theirs an X switch at the upper level of queens borough that connects the BMT and IRT
there are only two platforms at queensboro plaza the upper one for trains going into queens and the lower one going into Manhattan. this is the only cross platform transfer between the IRT and BMT/BRT on the entire Revenue system. the crossover tracks nearby the station are not used for revenue service however they can be used for non-revenue trains(refuse trains, work trains, track geometry cars) as those are all sized to fit into IRT size to cut down on cost. there are a few more connections between the IRT and BMT/BRT/IND like the one between the woodlawn line(4) and concourse yard nearby Beadford Park Boulevard station.
Miss Jennifer Banks queensboro plaza is the first station to have one side IRT and the other side for BMT
I love and miss NYC 😭❤️

I remember back in the very very early 2010s I would watch this video all the time and I am still glad I can remember the good old times by watching this.
This video didn't explain anything. Color means size? Letter means size? Wtf?
Number lines were part of the IRT (Interborough Rapid Transit) and are built to narrow dimensions (cars are 51ft L x 9ft W).
Letter lines A-G were part of the Independent Subway (IND) while J-Z were part of the Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Co (BMT). Both systems were built to wider and longer dimensions (60' or 75' L x 10' W).
The numbers and letters are how you tell them apart. Number lines will have shorter trains while letter lines will have wider and longer trains. Also as such, you will never see one type on the other's line. Although some stations are shared, they can't share physical trackage due to the different dimensions.
@@blue9multimediagroup They can share Trackage
It’s only the Width keeps BMT/IND trains can’t go on IRT Tracks Because of the Platforms and Curves while the IRT Can go Anywhere in the System
@@ninofromkitchennightmares1497 is that not what we just said?
The exception to the rule of the IND/IRT at the same platform is Queensboro Plaza station where the 7 train and Q and N trains share a platform
This video confused the hell outta me....i know the subway by heart but it damn sure wasn't cause of this video.
I was hoping the narrator would explain why the MTA picked the colors they picked for certain lines - why the Broadway line is yellow, the 8th Avenue line is blue, the Lexington Avenue line is green, etc.
I assume so that people can just differentiate them more easily on the map and in person. Life would be a bit harder if every train was colored yellow or something
I'm so happy chicago CTA is just colors, so much more simple. MTA is too confusing for me lol.
What if you're color.blind? ;)
kingraver507 i
I agree i used to live in chicago cta is easy metra is way hard-Union Pacific West Line see it so hard
Seoul has the best and one of biggest subways in the world, and they only use numbers. Wow, so easy and smart!
Not to me, maybe because I'm an new Yorker
The lines didn't have the alphanumeric nomenclature until 1967 when the Chrystie Street Connection opened, blurring the distinction between BMT and IND.
0:09 and 2:04 1 Avenue’s exit leads to the water in the map.
*NOW DOESNT THAT MAP LOOK DIFFERENT?*
1:31 yawning person walking to his train
I like the IRT number lines in my opinion
Fact: the (7) train is the ONLY subway number line that goes to Queens.
That’s not true, the N train goes to queens just like the E train too
@@BillyFromNYCBruh the N got designated already and the E always used a letter labal.
Wow. The first MTA video I ever saw. Isn't it so simplistic?
That is very educational for me to know which Subway trains are very close to me to take. : )
@ALN1 China It's just a video. : 0
Yet we are still confused till this day😅
Impas_sive no I understand it pretty well.
for the 7 train there is a diamond for express service. Besides the 7, you just have to know that different letters and numbers individually. For instance, the D always runs express along central park west, but the A does not do so at night.
Along 7th ave, for example, the 2 and 3 are express except for the 1.
At one time, as my father told me, that trains would also have a combination of colored lights (red, green, yellow and blue) on the front of the first car. Because many could not read, before WW2, the color combination told people what train it was. Heaven forbid if the color combination was wrong.
That's partly how the Malbone St accident happened.....
In the NYC Subway, each individual line is depicted by a number or a letter designation symbol. The color of the route indicates a main portion of the route, and many routes of the same color have a portion where they run together (sometimes more than one meeting portion). Therefore if saying the Orange Line for NYC, you’d have to know which orange line you’re referring. NYC’s subway is the largest subway system in the United States.
@5BronxExp
thats a good point! i was gonna say the exact. like the video says, red is for 7th Ave, for all we know, NYC might as well rename each street a subway goes udner to 7th ave which would be even more of a headache
what about the 6th Ave line?
@@kathymcmorrow it's orange
@@jaydottt_transitfanner OWANGE
They forgot the W once
this was made a bit after it was discontinued in 2010, it did not return until 2016.
This didnt even confuse me at all, i guess because i’m a rail fan its not that confusing
The Flushing and Astoria Lines used to be the exception in the days of joint operation between the IRT and BMT.
at least the w train came back
yep I wish they created this in 2000.
That's gotta be Brooklyn /queens line. Whoa.

After a bit of searching... the loco at 1:14 is either a steam dummy or a Forney Steam Locomotive. I'm leaning towards the latter since its pulling so many cars. Its looks like a dummy (to me) because they were really small and also ran bunker first (hiding the front end and giving it that stubby look). Its a shame that this kind of info is hard to come by. Also a shame practically NONE of these nyc building blocks have been preserved.
42nd Street is the only IRT shuttle in NYC

Nice video with interesting info. But next time please consider limiting the use of music. There were times I couldn't quite hear the words.
New York City’s subway is the largest subway system in the United States.
0:39 the way she said “6th avenue” kinda sounded like the l train “6th avenue”
There was never and currently is no "I" train route.
@@jaydottt_transitfanner I meant the L train
In Manhattan just walk a few blocks and your already at another subway station that is amazing!
If the subway had no line colors and you would see an F train at a 2 Train platform, then no one would want to ride the subway because the lines would be all scattered around and no one would know what train they would have to take to get to a certain station.
The letter trains have a stand track gauge but the number trains have a more narrow track gauge (width) so a number train can't be on a letter line and vise versa.
Eric Iliyev Actually the track gauge is the same for all rail lines, it's the actually train cars that are different and their station platform clearance and tunnels. Number trains can ride on Letter rail lines just fine, but not vice versa as the tunnels and platforms are too narrow for the letter cars like the R160.
+Professor Hines' Choice absolutely correct
No colors has no relation to unorganized service
Except number train models like r62 and r142 would make a huge gap between the train and the platform.
This should be on subway maps.
FUN FACT: The B,D,M and R all have one thing in common. What is it?
they use both IND and BMT tracks? (tho that would also include the Q)
I love it!
A bit strange they'd even show that locomotive drawn train since that wasn't even part of the subway but rather of the now long gone elevated lines in Manhattan.
I love trains
Nicely done
People have been seeing R188 cars at the 18th Avenue (N) Train Station.
That station is an Open-Cut Station.
Nick Jablonski 18th Avenue is a local station on the BMT Sea Beach Line of the New York City Subway, located in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn at the intersection of 18th Avenue and 64th Street. It is served by the N train at all times.
This open cut station, opened on June 22, 1915, has four tracks and two side platforms. The two center express tracks are not normally used. The Coney Island-bound track has been disconnected from the line and the Manhattan-bound track is signaled for trains in both directions. Both platforms are made of concrete and carved in the Earth's crust. The rectangular columns are painted light blue while the platform walls are painted beige.
This station has two fare control areas, one at each end of the platforms. The full-time side is at the east (railroad south) end. A single staircase from each platform goes up to a metal crossover, where a short staircase goes up to a set of doors that lead to the station house's waiting area. A turnstile bank provides access to and from the station. Outside fare control, there is a token booth and doors leading to the west side of 18th Avenue between 63rd and 64th Streets. The station house is shared with several businesses.
On the west (railroad north) end of the station, one staircase from each platform goes up to a metal crossover, where a set of doors lead to an un-staffed station house with one exit only turnstile and one High Entry/Exit Turnstile providing access to and from the station. The doors lead to the west side of 17th Avenue between 63rd and 64th Streets.
This station was renovated with cream colored tiles and a light blue and red trim line.
This station, along with eight others along the Sea Beach Line, is scheduled for a rehabilitation starting in 2015.[2]

Orange M does the same thing. No use for it.
Why am I watching this I live in Sydney. Good video though.
@411NewYork The point is moot though. Just look at the Q and N today. They are both express and local in different locations making it difficult to make a speedy choice if you're traveling from Coney Island to Queensboro Plaza.
This made me even more confused, there’s other lines for the whole NYC subway.

The only chance for there being the opposite size at a platform is if 7 trains are rerouted via the W line.
