This is part six of my project to get a video of the 2 train. Here you see I'm on a Wakefield-241st Street bound R142 2 train filming out the RFW from Chambers Street in Manhattan to East 180th Street in the Bronx.
Stations in this video are Prospect Avenue, Intervale Avenue, Simpson Street, Freeman Street, 174th Street, and East Tremont Avenue, which opened on November 26, 1904, and East 180th Street, which opened on March 3, 1917. This video was taken on April 22, 2010.
@ACLTony Thanks! Next month is a year I took this video. After I got off at East 180th Street, I did not film this train leaving, but instead, I turned around and came back on another 2 train.

Thanks for posting this. Brings back a lot of good memories of riding the #2 when the line was commanded by the classic Redbirds. :-)
