@MADSEEN2009 There used to be a grade crossing on the Canarsie line just up the line from Rockaway Parkway.

@MADSEEN2009 this isn't running through downtown though, it's common on the lines which run into the suburbs but there are a few lines like the 54th/Cermack line and the Kimball line who run on surface level with several grade crossings but are limited to 35mph through those crossings if they do run through the crossings with out a station before the open track.

How often do the trains run on this line? I can't imagine traffic being stopped every 2 minutes at peak hours to let a train pass.

@heels2479 When this branch was still part of the Blue Line, it used to run in the middle of the expressway.
Also, would you believe there's a subway line thats 99% at grade AND doesn't enter the city?

Do you have anymore posted?

@subterainal because the rest of the train is still in contact with the third rail
as long as that happens it will have enough energy to get across the street

A subway line with grade crossings??
heels2479 2 years ago
I live in Brooklyn, NY and always take the train all the time...and to see a subway with street crossings is kina odd.especaily in a city like chicago... I mean the closest thing we have over here in NY to a subway crossing is the Long Island Railroad..BUT LIRR crossings are NOT in the NYC AREAS.. but in suburban NY..like Long Island.. even upstate NY..Weschester , Orange County..etc...

As long as one car is on the 3rd rail , the traction motors on that car will be enough to push it across the gap.
