It became extremely apparent that there was a large, tattered hole where the crotch of his pants used to be. 2. A fully dressed man came through the car, asking for change. The man without adequate genital coverage stood up, dug through his pockets (surprisingly intact), and handed the panhandler some coins. This man, who stank like Bigfoot's Dick and whose pants were lacking where they were most needed, gave another soul his last bit of change. Thank you, C Train, for teaching me the meaning of generosity. And also for making me 30 minutes late to my soccer game. And for traumatizing my girlfriend.

Considering I have a long long family connection to this location and train station, I feel…read moreentitled to write a review. I've seen it in good times and bad. Whether it's safe these days at certain hours I'm not sure. I know I wasn't fond of traveling to Port Chester alone at times in my life. I remember the times I needed a cab. Finding a cab was hit or miss. Incoming trains are not on the side where you can easily enter the Station Building. You walk down the long flight of stairs to a back street. Frequently my family would be waiting outside the station to pick me up. Sometimes they were late! I've never seen the inside of the station dirty. I always found it deserted. I didn't travel during peak hours. On my return trips to Manhattan I go outside and wait patiently for the train. I'm always afraid I'll miss it if I wait inside. I sure don't want to be stuck there waiting for the next train! When my Cousin Jim was alive we would sit in the car and talk. When we saw the train coming I'd head upstairs to the track. He'd wait to see I boarded safely. That memory makes me sad. It was nice to be cared for by a Cousin/Brother. Since he died I don't go back to Port Chester much. When I do my daughter usually goes with me. Thanks for letting me share my memories. And thanks Bill for posting. Seeing your recent post revived my history using this old Railroad Station!

I was always amazed on how he was able to give people the exact change. Today the shop no longer exists. It is now a Restaraunt that is only open in the spring and summer time.

Immaculately restored and for a normal fare, you can ride on these cars on the F line from 2nd ave to 145th, making normal stops along the way. You are able to walk through each car to see the different styles and remodels. It's acceptable to dress in time period clothing as well. Original signs, advertisements, lighting systems, fans, ventilation are all displayed and completely functional. The car was getting hot, so, the fans turned on! It's a very special experience to ride on a car that people used from over 100 years ago. It makes you appreciate the technology of the subway system. So cool, particularly if you are partial to vintage and old NY history.

The train goes all the way to 125th street. We got off at Columbus Circle for the holiday market.The train is a circa 1905 subway complete with working fans on the ceiling and rattan seats.

Thankfully there were some really nice people that were willing to help out a little and show me the ropes, from parking to getting the tickets. The help they provided was 5+ stars. Parking: Kind of a problem, everything is parking permit only. I was told that after 5:00 they rarely check for permits and 'you should' be ok. Worst case you get a parking ticket, not towed. I really didn't have time to stress about it, so I went with it. Thankfully they were right and I didn't get a ticket. When you are here you have to cross to the other side of the track to purchase your ticket. The train was really close to running on time and only had to wait a couple minutes. 40 - 45 minutes ride to get in to Grand Central including all the stops along the way for pick ups and drop offs. Last train back runs pretty late out of the city. The one I caught was at 11:30, but they had at least two more trains after mine with the latest somewhere between 12:30 and 1:00 am. Overall price and experience isn't bad. Primarily, I wish that they had parking that wasn't permit only. They may have, I just wasn't able to find it.
