Wow, I'm surprised with all the leaks that side hasn't fallen yet. I remember that track that was torn up was used to turn late night J trains before extending to Chambers St.
I filmed abandoned station area of Chambers Street / J Line a year back. Not sure if it is still abandoned, but there were a lot of homeless living down in the tunnels from there.
Aaliyah One in a Million promo shoots for her sophomore album which changed her career forever and which changed R&B forever was taken in this subway. That’s history. While people down there being disrespectful and trashing it.
Something nobody knows is that’s where Aaliyah took promo shoots for her sophomore album One in a Million. She was in Canal st subway on her One in a Million 1996 album cover.
2:23 Is that a mixture of electricity and water making that sound? Maybe from a leak that is touching electrical wires? It's noticeably loud. And if it is true, that must be extremely dangerous. If I was standing on that platform and I heard that noise, I would have been out of there! Because 600 volt DC is no damn joke.
Just curious, I've heard numerous of times that the abandoned Bowery tunnel connects to the abandoned Canal street. Is it possible to just enter abandoned Canal through that tunnel ? (I do this exact same thing in Philly, but I'm not that familiar with the NYC system like that.)
@Oscar Figueroa , Yes, we do. There's like 5 I think, but I only found 3, and only visited 2 of them (I explore them on the videos in my channel if you're curious about it. But I'm just a guy that walks in subway tunnels. ) I'll find the rest before the year is over.
That station must be from the 1920s!! The platform is so narrow!! Doesn't look like it would hold too many people! Where is this platform in relation to the other trains that stop there??
@@Flash_Warn1ng you end up on the sidewalk,, there is stairs that lead to a cellar type door you push the handle and boom . There could be people eating at a place . could be a busy street. it is halfway between each station ..
Good shot of the station and great escape too. but however I don't think these train stations are abandoned it neglected especially the chambers street. the MTA is focusing on the 2sd ave line for now.
@@PoweDiePie the M train used to go there not loo long ago and then go to Brooklyn but through the Manhattan bridge, it was change when the V train was discontinued so the M make the V trip after Essex/delancey

If the entire line from Chambers St to Myrtle Ave became a 4-track line, the J and M could be de-interlined and the Nassau St Line’s abandoned platforms could be restored.
There is a canal street station with white columns and there is a big hole on one of the walls to you can through the wall and enter the abandoned station however it’s kind of risky and you might accidentally step on the third rail however out of all the stations this is possibly one of the easier ones to get in.
The lights are probably connected to the open side, and also the MTA occasionally uses the still active track to store trains, so they need to be able to see anyway.
It's right next to the un-abandoned part of Canal St station on the J/Z trains, which he walks into at the very end of the video. To get there you have to either be lucky enough to have the employee door unlocked/open, or get down on the tracks at the end of the platform and walk around the wall.
They're not going to do that. The MTA are claiming that they're on a financial deficit.,they've done a lot of budget cuts. There's more very old abandoned subway station with no lights.
They did it so that one platform could service both directions, rather than have one platform per direction and have the station even more complicated than it already is.
Yup, still there. Once you're on the abandoned platform you can't really be seen from passing trains. However, you should always be wary, an employee could pop up at any moment for any reason, and near the middle of the platform there are a few wall gaps that aren't covered, so a waiting passenger could potentially see you.
This abandoned station is a mess, but it needs rehabilitation along with the rest of the abandoned subway stations in the city all needs rehabilitation, and it will be used as shelters.

Just the northbound platforms, as the southbound inner track was repurposed as the new northbound track, leading to the southbound platforms being used for trains in both directions.
Both the abandoned Bowery station and abandoned Canal station can be used for film and hip hop and rock music video production
Is it legal?

you would be surprised how much walls can endure.
the track on the right is still in use
It’s a storage track.
There’s something strangely haunting about abandoned metro stations but I just can’t put my finger on it

Chambers Street on the J/Z lines looks abandoned also if it's not...or even worse!!
This is where AALIYAH’s album cover photo for One In A Million was shot. Rest In Peace Aaliyah 🌹🌹
Lights are still bright from back then
The album cover was on the IRT platforms. You’ll see a R62/A in one of the other pics from that shoot.
Who? Demonic music man? Musuc industry full of smut and sinfulness.

How is there a sign for the Q and the W train and another person if it is abandoned?
Always wondered, why the sub way system, leaves so many lights on.
I can't believe they removed the tracks! It smells as bad as it looks in there from having been in that station.
Is there any other way to get into it besides getting onto the tracks?
Unless you're lucky enough for the employee door to be unlocked, no, you have to go over the tracks.
wow they really dont use it anymore but there is a set of tracks on the other side of the wall that is active
I remember this old platform as a kid!
Truly a station stuck in time. Also, why was there a 4 car (J) train?
It was a 4 car m train dumbass

I remember there's a door right next to the n and q train station lower platform that's locked and I'm pretty sure that leads you to that station.

The lights are probably connected to the open side, and also the MTA occasionally uses the still active track to store trains, so they need to be able to see anyway.
how do you get here? Like what train do I have to get off and where do I walk

Is the 3rd rail deactivated?
Here, lemme check...AHHHHHHHHHH! Nope, guess not, lol.
they use it for emergency uses and express service if they have to
@@psychicfriendfreadbear6025 or for layups
I really just got nostalgic for the pattern of noise that the q train makes at canal street, haven't been on it in a while
trying to go soon, where did you enter from it seem hard without getting caught
it should be simple if you hop on south of the northbound track so then you just go around and into the abandoned side
it is pretty simple
check out my video
mta can use some abonded stations and add new trains
They're not going to do that. The MTA are claiming that they're on a financial deficit.,they've done a lot of budget cuts. There's more very old abandoned subway station with no lights.
@@reggierodriguez6546 it's a fucking scam
They've been abandoned forever though....well the one side of Canal not that long
or make a tour line
The station is abandoned but the rush hour J express trains use them.
I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO HERE
Why did they close off this half of the station????
They did it so that one platform could service both directions, rather than have one platform per direction and have the station even more complicated than it already is.
@@aninternetuser7548 Huh that does make sense.

It was abandoned in 2004.
This platform was abandoned in 2004, but the others are open.
no its not abandoned canel st is a express station serverd by the m j and z and q and r train and 4 train
How you got there?
What was the meaning one at the end then you got into a train that area did not look abandoned
That was the non-abandoned part of the station
What year was this? I never knew canal street abandon
It's just a platform not the whole station
Mans wearing yeezys doing that how disrespectful- a hypebeast

no/.
Could have sworn that was jackie estacado in the background but there was too much darkness to tell
You should have checked out the layup tracks behind the wall while you were there.
These stations needs to be overhaul into 21st century and re-opened for a Brooklyn bound strains

hey you guys happen to have instagram or something so i can Dm you and i can ask some question
dont they use old bowery to turn trains around
HueyG only 1 side, the side closest to the "entrance" is completely deactivated
HueyG nevermind, its not used for turn around as far as I'm concerned, it is used for docking trains, not everyday though
