Travel in vintage style with the return of the New York Transit Museum’s Parade of Trains this month.
Climb aboard historic subway cars selected from the collection of the museum for a leisurely ride on the BMT Brighton line. Swipe your MetroCard or tap your OMNY card at the Brighton Beach station and jump on one of the trains traveling to and from the B/Q platform. The 20-minute round trip will head to Kings Highway and back.
The vintage rides will take place between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Saturday, September 17 and Sunday, September 18. Be aware that riders will only be able to get on and off the vintage cars at the Brighton Beach station. The exact cars that will be used that day haven’t been announced.
