Taking the 7 to the transfer

Here we are at Vernon-Jackson Avenue on the 7 Train, where we arrive at and depart from the station. From there, we stop at Hunterspoint Avenue, 45th Road-Court House Square, and finally Queensboro Plaza, where we make the only possible across the platform transfer from the A Division to the B Division and onto an Astoria-bound W Train. Along the way, we pass Arch Street Yard, Hunterspoint Avenue Station on the LIRR, and a couple of other 7 Trains. The 7 Train consists of single unit R62's, and the W Train consists of R160's. Enjoy the scenery from the train. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on February 12th, 2009.

The red girders on the left as you turn into Queensboro Plaza are part of the 2nd ave El connection from the bridge that closed in June 1942.
