Visitors can board the vintage cars, sit at the wheel of a city bus, step through a time tunnel of turnstiles, and explore changing exhibits that highlight the cultural, social and technological history - and future - of mass transit.
Every year, the New York Transit Museum brings some of their vintage 1930s R1-9 train cars back on the tracks!
ROUTE
As an ode to the holiday shopping season, the vintage trains will depart from 2nd Avenue on the F line in Lower Manhattan and run along 6th Avenue in Manhattan to 47th-50th/Rockefeller Center before heading up the Central Park West line, where the train will stop at 59th St - Columbus Circle before making its way up to 125th St on the A/C/D lines in Harlem.
