A subway train on an elevated section of the New York metro system – about to enter East Tremont Avenue – West Farms Square station heading towards Manhattan and South Ferry on the No 5 Lexington line, New York, USA 1969. The train includes some distinctive red carriages. The trees of Brooklyn Park are visible in the background. The IRT (Interborough Rapid Transit Company) Lexington Avenue Line (IRT East Side Line or IRT Lexington–Fourth Avenue Line) is one of the lines of the A Division of the New York City Subway, stretching from Lower Manhattan north to 125th Street in East Harlem. The line is served by the 4, 5, 6 trains. This image is from an old colour transparency taken by an amateur photographer. It will look soft if used at too large a size – a vintage 1960s photograph.
