All New for 2023 Historical track maps of the long-gone IRT Manhattan and Bronx Els of the early-to-mid 20th Century. They're all here: Second, Third, Sixth, and Ninth Avenue Lines. All the old routes--and even their marker signal codes--are included! In addition, the never-build IND Second System tracks as envisaged in 1930, including the Second Avenue Subway and South Fourth St., plus connections to the existing IND are presented for the first time ever, along with an expanded introduction section and a table of contents.
As always, the book depicts every track (with track numbers), every yard, every station, and many diverging route home signals. The book also encompasses the latest capital improvements, signal changes and track/signal renewal projects, including the newly-reopened 42nd St. Shuttle reconfiguration. As with past editions, Grand Central, the Park Avenue tunnels, Penn Station, PATH, and the Staten Island Railway track maps are also included. Current fleet data and train service requirements have also been updated.
The book is 189 pages in length, spiral-bound in 8 1/2 x 11" format. Note that the PDF version is intended strictly for on-screen viewing and is not printable.
SHIPPING NOTE: For customers in the United States but located outside the immediate NYC region, Priority Mail or UPS delivery is strongly recommended. While generally fine for the tri-state area, the cheaper Media Mail option can take up to three weeks to arrive, especially during November and December, and tracking information is not always reliable.
Economy shipping of the printed book is available for customers in the USA. Delivery times may be longer than Priority Mail (up to 10 days is possible), but for shipping to NYC and environs it's usually about 3 days. Note: Media Mail shipping is uninsured.

United StatesGreat Maps and History
This is an excellent reference for New York City Subway tracks both past and present. It's filled with history, including many long-gone tracks and stations, as well as current operations and signal layouts. The authors have done a great job getting the extensive history and detailed maps right.
United StatesAnother walk-off home run by NYC Subway tracks historian Peter Dougherty
The use of individual line color for the first time made this version a mandatory purchase for me. Then the historic yard track layouts made this book purchasable at any price and quite interesting to this NYC Transit Tower Operator. Thanks Pete, keep up the great work.
United StatesWorth getting.
