Mindent elbaszott.Neeee
Facts lol
Im not sure if anyone told you yet, but thats not a subway car.
BusTV Chan | nope, no one in the comments has said that..
Yep. There totally isn't 100 other comments pointing out the same mistake over and over.
yeah but it's still not fixed.. maybe he needs to see it again and again to understand
BusTV Chan Or maybe he doesn’t give a shit....
lol these replies are golden!
I don’t even live in NYC but I know that’s not a subway car
A subway, is just be a train that submerges. Seeing how you're not from here, you wouldn't know that the LIRR goes underground at Atlantic Terminal.
It’s a train that goes to Long Island called the LiRR
@@nukedenclaveoilrig-remnant1136 Stop playing dumb! When someone refers to an NYC subway train, they clearly aren't talking about an LIRR train, whether it goes underground at Atlantic Terminal or not.
Alien Queen [M ! N A_A S H ! D 0] The subway stays in NYC. The LIRR is not a subway. Even though it goes to Atlantic terminal, it goes the Long Island. The LIRR is not a subway.
bake me a cake Amtrak goes underground, and so does NJT. Are they subway systems? I think the fuck not.
Surprised Homeless People Aren't Living There..
Mr E I guarantee you a hooker took their “customer” there tho
Same, but you can tell that the one car was salvaged by scrappers. So it could be possible homeless were living in that one car before scrappers came in or the homeless scraped whatever remains they could to make a few bucks.
@@jcw8719 that'll honestly be hawt
I would
There aren't because I believe this car was in Port Jefferson when this video was filmed, a suburb about 50 or 60 miles from the city.
It's an old LIRR train. I'm from Long Island. I remember these old trains. They were more spacious than the newer ones. They were built in the early 1970's. The LIRR still has a few of them in service. I wonder how many miles that train had?!😊😊😊
Maria Capone w
I’m from Long Island too!!
Maria Capone the older ones are SO SLOW
These cars haven’t been in service for 20 years
Pat Meaden bull crap I was on one last year. You clearly are not from New York!
Thats LIRR TRAIN NOT A SUBWAY TRAIN, AND U CANT USE METROCARDS TO GET ON THE LIRR.
Ok get over it!
They sell tickets that have a metrocard combined with them
amanda br piss off nigga
is a subway loom theres metro card
The LIRR (Long Island railroad) is a commuter system owned by the MTA so I guess you can use metrocards on the LIRR (Long Island railroad)
‘Untouched’
**Sees graffiti everywhere**
KRANZ EKV sounding mad toy. It’s steel. It’s an old train on a busy line in New York probably seen by thousands a day at least. Graffiti is most commonly found along train lines..
Chloe Potato hahaha lol
By untouched he means that it hasn’t been in use since then
@I love it Tbh in my opinion I find the graffiti interesting whenver a train passes by I wonder whats the meaning of the word put in there and hoe much detail is in it pretty cool.
@I love it I know im late but are you comparing rape to graffitit cause theres a bug difference between them BIGGGGG difference.
Back when people were still reading newspapers
People still read newspapers
People still read the news, whether on their phones or computers
Cees Duck hey atleast it’s better for the environment right?
Nameless 18 not when you hipsters still carry leather bags and buy packs of water bottles
Also Fitz bruh you should know what a newspaper is
This can only happen in USA. In Eastern Europe , the gypsy metal scavengers would have disassemble it in less than a year , selling the metal to junkyards
Hahahaha! But still true! My dad has been to a gypsy flea market. He couldn't believe what they were selling: Soviet era armored cars and AKs by the box!
There are more places in the world than the USA and Eastern Europe.
Not western Europe.
@AmnesiaOnAPoney I'm a gypsy metal scrapper from the USA. My dad taught me how to use a cutting torch when I was like 10 haha I do mostly copper from old tear downs.
Uhm nooo.....
It's scary how different the city was 20 years ago,,, pre 9/11
Mrdoublejimmothy This was never part of the NYC subway. This video is false.
A subway from 1999 would still be running today and the seating on a Subway has been the same since the eighties
Kyle Williams yeah but they could have still stoped usage of it
Not true. Pre 9/11 the city was great. We have the twin towers. No one knew of terrorism.
9/11 happened in 2001
How could this be abandoned so long where the public had access to it and it's not completely destroyed? I've never seen that before.
Lawrence Lentini there are actually alot places like that
Karen Zekauskas Can I have some cool examples of some places?
Yeah the metal freaks would've sold it for meth
Contrary to the video's title, these cars haven't been sitting there since 1999. They were probably kept in Queens for a while before being put out in Port Jeff more recently.
Well here is the thing Larry the public really does not have access to it, this is private property and people do trespass. Yet most railroads don't really come down hard on this type of trespassing. However if you get injured while doing this you better keep quiet and not try to Sue, or the railroad will sue you first for trespassing!
I love when you show the expiration dates on anything found.
YES YES YES!!!
Long Island railroad train. NYC subway cars are electric. No locomotive every care can pull itself if need be. Any case great explore cool subject matter 👍👍👍👍
Michael Poganik- I grew up taking the LIRR to NYC
youtube watcher same
Definitely LIRR (pronounced "LI" double R)
the car with a motor is called a locomotive electric or not
oh, and not every car has a motor
That's actually not a NYC Subway Train, that's a Commuter Train, it uses a different voltage amount than a subway train.
6:04 -- 600 Volts in the car that pulls the train.
Actually the third rail system used in commuter railroads in SE NY runs at about 600 VDC same as the subway system.
WitchidWitchid actually, that's incorrect, the LIRR and Metro-North third rails are charged at 750 volts
The LIRR system USED to be 600 volts until they got the M-1 units back in the lates 60s-early 70s. At one time there was talk of sharing trackage between LIRR and the IRT part of the subway system (back in the 1930s).
That electrical system is completely different than a subway system. It's a diesel switcher locomotive, not a power car.
1999 was a great year
I feel like when we entered the 2000s we lost a bit of America .
well. 9/11 will do that.
9/11 is the date when we, as a nation, took that nosedive. Im 41 now, I was 22 2001 and I Know that life was better then. I actually miss it.
We did. Two very big bits.
these were retired due to age and closing of unused stations that required their steps…they were replaced by the current fleet still going strong
That is NOT a subway train. Then again anything on rails in NYC to the normal person is automatically the "subway" despite the fact the actuall Subway never push seats in a row.
Nicholette Casey your cute!
Nicholette Casey Fuck New York
Can't disagree with you. Hence why I got the fuck out of NYC.....
Nicholette Casey some guy in DC thought a Csx Es44ac was the metro😂
The NYC subway did at one point have seating in a row like a regular railroad car, but that was back the first half of the 20th century. Once ridership increased, they realized they can cram more people into the cars by having benches facing inwards. I recommend a visit to the NYC transit museum if you ever have some spare time.

I find it incredibly eerie that the financial newspaper you found may well have been left by somebody working at the World Trade Centre.
mysteriouskazakh Yeah, a scary thought indeed!
mysteriouskazakh ah fuck
Wow, that is a extremely creepy thought.
paper said 1999 !
9/11 was 2001
got it ?
Jim Buki bum
That is a LIRR train. Source: I'm from NYC/LI
Damn, all of those ads and newspapers look so nostalgic
poster in first car was from 1991
+Ciscodude
I saw that too, it is possible that instead of removing old ads from the frames they just left old ones in place and covered them over with later ones...
Dude........the Twin Towers were rebuilt in Hibbing MN after 9/11.
Keep it comin' love
Don't stop it now, don't stop it now
Don't stop it now, don't stop it

Don't stop it now, don't stop it no

cmtmj2006 You know Your maths then.
Why is the condition of the train shocking? Abandoned 18 years, and these two cars are obviously accessable to people, I found the condition to be better than what I expected.
"untouched"
enters carriage with half the seats ripped out
That’s the nicest nyc subway seats I’ve ever seen
Razer - that’s cause it’s not a subway car. it’s from the long island railroad
This isn't a subway train, it's a commuter one, like the one you got on at the beginning..
I remember 20 cent NYC subway tokens..............
And by the way........ Those are LIRR trains...... Long Island Rail Road..
Way too swanky for a NYC subway car!
“3 1/2 hour cold relief” boy in 18 years we got to 12 hr cold relief
because its a short 3.5 hour flight to (I forget where ahead said) suggesting you fly from NYC to escape the cold
🤣... right
3:10 WWF NEW YORK!!! OMG
Hi
@@japhreal hi
That was the end of the era where quality was better then quantity. Look how detailed the seats were.
They were never phased out. Those same seats are used system wide on Metro North.
Boot 185 the cars are way better as of today. Those seats and design just looks tacky.
the P-75s were held together with duct tape and were bathrooms
Boot 185 no the newer metro north trains (the ones I take) are much better, the have outlets and the seats aren't made out of that hard leather. Not to mention the cars are much clearer
Boot 185 actually they are better now, you just automatically assume it's a subway train because it's in NY, but it's not a subway train...
90% - comments from experts saying it's not a subway train
10% - other comments
I work for the NYC Subway so I qualify!
JorgeCat78 look at all my fucks that just drove away in that train
@@zioxei you do not have to be rude
I've ridden NYC subways, and commuted via Metro-North.This is a Metro-North car. Huge difference.Most MN seats face forward.
zioxei LMAOO 😂😂😂 “from experts” I am dead
you’re funny
1:40 Bro someone was cooking meth in there
it crazy to think that the last time this train was in use was during a time of peace. a mere two years later, & the world would lose its innocence. more specifically, America.
Kat Attack how could u say smth so true but so controversial...?
Btw I 100% agree w u sis
@Brady Linn USA has been at constant war for my entire lifetime! (1951)--and probably for at least a century before...Google it.
what happened 2 years later?
@@tannenman September 11 2001 the world trade centers had a plane fly into them. How old are you?
@@hilde198881 holy moly this is the first I'm hearing of this!
Theres something really oddly beautiful about how quickly entropy can affect things .. I found this really fascinating . ..makes me want to explore .. thank you
Hello, I'm a railfan. Here's a brief history of the Long Island Railroad's P-72 coaches:
Around 1955 the LI introduced these 2900 series conventional locomotive-hauled heavyweight commuter coaches for use on the Long Island Railroad System (looooong before the MTA). These would have been pulled by Alco PA-1s or EMD GP38s. Starting around the 1980s these coaches were phased out by the introduction of newer equipment, but not before many had their stripe lowered to match the M1 EMUs. Today these cars are all over the place, in weeds, in excursion service, as sandite gloop trains to provide adhesion in the fall when those darn leave keep falling on the track
These cars are in Port Jefferson Station, just a stones throw from their owner's establishment: the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum. These include 2909, 2935, 2956, 2966, and I'm too lazy to check the others. The OBRM's website has a bio on these cars: 2935 and 56 were built in 1955 and '56, with steam heat and batteries, later converted to generators in the 70s. 2956 has 123 seats and 2935 has 118 and a restroom. They are wearing the most recent paint scheme that the LI put them in.
As for the MP15ACs, LI 162, 169, and 170, those are just EMD MP15ACs. Go to Wikipedia and read it for yourself.
4:16 It did not change too much our famous Nesquik character 🤣
Damn.. The vibe this train gives me.. Very beautiful, and cool explore! I love the fact that you were very quiet for a majority of the explore.
And to think that these railroad cars from the 90's that once carried passengers are just left to sit and deteriorate. Sad, but at the same time nostalgic, considering their service ended around the time Y2K was supposed the end the world.
Ready for Y2K38 ?
What is y2k38?
@@dickjohnson5979 2038
these were still being used a few years ago
5:30 that's not a subway locomotive, that's a yard switcher.
Yes it is
It looks like a Diesel locomotive. *-I've been playing too much Train Station!-*
0:42 19 days before I was born D:
This was not a "subway" car. At the end of the clip, you can plainly see that this is car 2966. This particular car and another P72, 2909 (presumably the other car in the video, although its number is never shown) were Long Island Railroad cars that were moved from the Morris Park Yard to the Arch Street Shop several months after this video was made in preparation for donation to the NY Transit Museum. As far as the locomotive, #162 was an E15 class, running 600 VDC Head-end power on the LIRR (i.e. towing unpowered cars such as the P72). At the time of the video, it was rotting in the "boneyard" section of Morris Park.
Cushioned seats like these would not last a week on a subway, and the way they were laid out (2 large seats on each side, plus a mini-seat in the middle), gave a 2 + 2½ arrangement, giving BOTH a dreaded mini-seat AND a dreaded middle seat.
its when they were at port jeff west yard. see a dm30ac going by with c3s about to platform at port jeff. i live nearby and remember seeing them
I don't think anyone has pointed this out yet but these are not Subway cars. These are LIRR cars. You heard it here first guys!
That is not a New York City Transit train, yet it is a Long Island Rail Road, Greenport Scoot train set. The engine is a MP15 switcher engine.
The Great one same company, different subsidiary.
Nope not a green point car .I played in them when they took them out of service in the early 70s.dn by the creek n dump under the old bridge.
4:55 it kinda feels like the train he's in is actually moving with the sounds from the running one. Spooky.
Untouched since 1999. Touched in 2017
Why isn't anyone telling him that this isn't a subway train?! *sarcasm*
Seth Hartz look at the comments again
Can't you read? He said this was sarcasm.
Cryptic _ Ultron his comment was edited, he probably put that in later.

Dark Exploration Urbex i got a question is going into abandon buildings illegal?
+Dark Exploration Urbex
Thanks for the work and upload, I am fascinated by this kind of stuff.
The bigger question I have is when did they put these cars into service to begin with. It would appear to be sometime in the mid-late 70s perhaps at the latest early 80s? Any idea? Usually there is a date of manufacture on these cars around the door areas. Thanks again.
damian demarcy I
Dark Exploration Urbex Those aren't NYC subway cars. They're cars from either the Long Island Rail Road or Metro North Railroad two commuter railroads that provide service between NYC and it's suburbs.
Most likely
metro North but maybe LIRR. And I would know. lol
Great video shots. You're highly mistaken with your info about type of train it was. It isn't a NYC Transit train. I Currently know this as a fact. I'm born, live in NYC. NYC Public trains doesn't look like that @ all. Seating are fiberglass. Only two types of trains that looks similar like the one you shot in your video. NY LIRR or NY Path trains. Which is run by NYC Transit System. Highly suggeat you check out images of the type of NY trains they are. NY LIRR, NY PATH, NYCT
4:01 just makes me want to cry. Oh the memories!
In an alternate timeline where the Y2k computer bug triggered WW3. 18 years later there you are exploring the ruins of the land once called, New York City. Hahaha Looks so post apocalyptic, I had to say that. Nice job setting the mood!
No that gives me chills stop
Corey M ju
that would actually be a really cool movie.
Holy shit I forgot that nesquick used to look like that damn!! 4:16
+James Martinez They should bring that look back
dikc
It looks a bit dated.
Man I remember those cars. I was a teenager in the 90's on long island. Several times a week we would take those to the mall, or Brooklyn, or Manhattan. Back then people would smoke blunts and drink 40's on the train and nobody would say a word. Graffiti crews would lace these cars up at night and within 48 hours they would have them clean.
*Also 9 times out of 10 we wouldn't even see the ticket collector, and not even have to pay to ride.
3:41...THATS MY BROTHER IN THAT AD ON THE SUBWAY WALL!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣WWWOOOOWWWW
who was your brother?
David Gallagher
@@dreamweaver7797 so your brother played Richie rich? That’s crazy.
Definitely MTA equipment. Metro-North Railroad for the locomotives (SW type switchers, maybe SW1200 series) and Long Island Railroad for the commuter coaches. If you pause it at the 6:44 mark you can just see the “LONG ISLAND” lettering beneath the faded “M” logo. Okay, enough specifics from me sorry. Love your work and looking forward to seeing more hidden treasures you come across!
mp15ac's. LIRR
Came from Dan Bell. Great video! Hope to see a lot more good work in the future.

Thank you for this awesome video!
Soo cool! It’s great to see something nearly 20 yrs old and not trashed or graffitied inside by a’holes. Hopefully someone saves that train car and preserves it. I know this vid was posted a year plus (nearly 2yrs) ago, but awesome find and thanks for sharing it.
I thought this was exploring with josh lmao
I feel like that from 2010 and on
He sucks
Oh my gosh, I found the same train. Not the exact one, but near where I live on an army depot, there were the Long Island train cars in the woods. I even made a video about it. But yours is much better. Not only the find, but the video itself. Very good job
Loved your video!
Dope conceptual editing at the beginning
they are not New York City subway cars they could be either Long Island Railroad or Metro-North decommission railroad cars also Staten Island Rapid Transit used to use those type of railroad cars until they switch models
Interesting video but the wrong property was cited. (Not Subway but LIRR)
2:02 I can't be the only person that rewinded just to see where his hand was? 😂
Awesome job on this exploration!

No thanks
It’s crazy to see an abandoned place so untouched and not destroyed
Thanks for going into these places you are awesome.
As others have said, this is not a subway train, and these MN/LIRR trains do not accept MetroCards.
live90 Cause the MTA want all your $$$ with those prices!! 😂
-Untouched
-literally half the seats are gôńè
Great show you put up here, takes us all back in time how the New York City subway was at the end of the 1990s, I live in Toronto, Canada, and we have subways similar like this too....
I love ur videos!
Abandoned train: *exists*
Graffiti artists: it’s free real estate
Ya know those train cars haven't been rotting there since 1999 right? They were moved to a siding track in Port Jefferson at the beginning of the New Year
I love your videos keep’em up
Such great editing
They got scared of y2k
thats metro north or LIRR....subway cars got hard non cushion seats
Damn I remember the day when this was uploaded, I had just subbed to u
Thanks for the memories!
all the news papers when people used to read and talk to each other unlike now it's just phones and social media..that isn't a dig just a nostalgic moment I miss those days. great video and subscribed.
Imagine if the train started moving while he was walking through it
Whatever line those ran on its still an interesting video, thanks for the upload!
I took that train when I was commuting everyday to culinary school back in 1999. Great video.
Okay I thought I was trippin. The footage he showed of the new train I'm looking at it thinking "isn't that the LIRR??" I remember riding those as a kid bc of me being from LI and my grandmother worked for the LIRR for 21 years
So what its not NYC cars. these cars are freaking awesome and he did a great job setting the mood ! great vid, subbed !
urban fever beaver Ok but his title is misleading
he was wrong and stop being a blind follower you sheep
stupid.
Really interesting video it's so weird seeing them abandoned like that it's like one of those films where something happens & everyone leaves the train & never come back
Very interesting as I grew up in the 90s, born 1988 and drank Nesquick and love trains since a very small girl. Small world and how news goes around and back from indiana to new york. I also grew up at an elementary school with the colors blue and yellow and my family liked black and red the colors! Awesome share and sad to see the train was abandoned... my family for years and so many generations have been in the military and back years ago when the first railroads were created, my Pickett blood line worked on the East coast in the train industry....
Take care and be safe New York!
you mean commuter
This makes me feel old wtf
Can’t believe it’s been two years since I found your channel
Thanks for showing closeups of the labels / buttons /posters etc.
What were those large metal containers in the first car? They look a bit like moonshine stills
OMG IM WATCHING THIS ON DECEMBER 10
Nice Work!
Lol..just loved how you showed that old phone in the magazine...you must read a lot of books and magazines no matter what year and time their from
Welp......
He touched it
That's the LIRR not the subway.
Not the subway, and this exact style of Metro North Train still goes out till this day. You just usually get the blue seat depending on where you get on.
