It's easy to use, being ADA compliant, and also has colorful artwork within the station. African American artist Lisa Corinne Davis employs layered representations of maps in these 2024 public art mosaic murals taken from her paintings made of a combination of glass smalti, engraved glass cakes with color infill, and hand-painted glass. Before you enter fare control is "Tempestuous Terrain" and on the Mezzanine, flanking both stairs down the platforms are "Liminal Location." They're all worth checking out when you stop to take a moment to enjoy the trains passing by below!

You must purchase a ticket before you board. All three doors open making for speedy boarding and disembarking of passengers. Keep your receipt after you buy your ticket. Sometimes a MTA Employee will be at a stop checking to see if passengers paid. The fine for not paying is hefty! The buses are new and have been clean when I ride. Passengers are not as crazy as I remember in the past on this route. I like that this bus stops right on my corner. Especially when I have shopping bags. All major intersections have a bus stop along this route. You need to use your Metro Card to buy the fare. Read all the instructions before you attempt to use this service. Much like all NYC Public Transportation there's lots of rules and regulations. I'm still a fan of faster service. If you're going very far, or out when it's 20 degrees wind chill, you should ride! Check out my photos.

It's pretty fascinating to take, costs $3 like a regular MTA ride. We have been fortunate to always travel early in the morning to get to Roosevelt Island to avoid crowded situations. Believe me, when the tram is crowded it can be a little overwhelming. "Overview & RouteLocation: Departs from Tramway Plaza at 59th Street and Second Avenue in Manhattan and arrives at Tramway Plaza on Roosevelt Island. Ride Time: About 3 to 4 minutes each way. Height & Views: Rises up to 250 feet above the East River, offering views of the Manhattan skyline and the Queensboro Bridge. " The views are breathtaking and the ride so short you're on Roosevelt Island in a blink.

This was my 1st time taking this train to the last stop I wanted to get to the Bronx via the 3 train at 145th st. and then transfer onto the 19 bus to cross the bridge. I messed up. I stayed on to 148 by mistake and had to take the downtown 1 stop for 145th. The conduct did announce that only the first 5 cars would open at 145th st. yet did not give a newbie like myself time to count the cars and run to the car I needed to be in and I ended up unable to get off and heading back downtown. Sad. Why announce what section of the train we need to be in if the doors are gonna close as soon as you do so?

I also enjoyed not having to deal with rats, smelly stations, bums, and annoying school kids on the subway. Over the past few months, however, service on the X63 has precipitously declined. Every morning, the bus breezes from my stop at Merrick and Farmers to the LIE. Once it gets on the LIE, it crawls all the way to Manhattan. Ironically, the "express" bus is slower than the subway. A few days ago, it took 45 minutes to travel from the Queens Blvd entrance of the LIE to 42nd Street and 3rd Avenue. That was the last straw. I'm done with the X63. The negatives outweigh the positives. I don't mind paying extra money for a premium service. I do mind getting to work late. If you have all of the time in the world then I encourage you to ride the X63. If not, then take the subway and local bus combination or LIRR (if you live near a LIRR station).
