Oh, the joy all us subway nerds had. But the real pleasure was seeing the faces of the regular folk just waiting for the F train. Many were too freaked out to get on!

I wish I'd caught that train. Where do these old trains live? I know some of them are at the museum in Brooklyn (well worth the visit if anyone hasn't) but I assume those aren't these trains. Do you know what the oldest trains they can still run at all are? Can original cars still operate on these tracks or has the system changed too much? Great pictures. I wish I’d caught that train.
