However, it was a pretty mundane typical station.              Pictures of the museum during its early days might be helpful. Back then the       museum was mostly in its original condition, not extensively rebuilt as it is       today.                     > I'm also guessing that the fact that Court Street is now a museum full       > of various types of rolling stock make it difficult to run any fan trips       > between there and Hoyt-Schermerhorn.

They DO operate fan trips from the museum from time to       time. I think they're up to $50 now.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
