I've read some things about them. I love the abandoned parts, but the Els are a little hard to trace, seeing as they don't leave much evidence of their existence, but it's sad to think of the many miles of El removed. I know that many subway lines nowadays were once Elevated.
I have went to some EL locations such as: the "Culver Line" 9th Avenue lower level, "Third avenue EL" Gunhill Road, "Myrtle Avenue EL" Myrtle Avenue 2 deck abandoned station (On J-Line), "Ninth Avenue EL" underground segwick avenue and jerome avenue stations, "Fulton Street EL" traces from Brodway Juction to Atlantic Avenue (L-Line). I only know some of the routes to each EL but you're right some of them are hard to trace because they are either completely demolished or not much of it is left.
Try exploring the "Tenth Avenue El" in Manhattan. I know that its the only EL that is still left standing. I believe you can actually walk along the entire pathway of the tracks. Another thing, When you go to Jerome ave and Segwick ave make sure you be extra careful because Jerome avenue station is on the rooftop of a house and Segwick ave now has a metro-north running past it every now and then. I can send you a satellite map of the entire nyc over e-mail so you wont get lost or anything.
Yeah, I've put research into the abandoned stations, so I know more or less what I'm doing. A goal of mine is to visit all the abandoned parts of the subway, so I'll have more videos of that sometime.
Yeah, it shouldn't be too hard. The entrance for the train to City Hall is under the front steps of the actual building. It shouldn't be too hard to locate the rest of it if you've been through it as it helps to know the scale. Good luck.
