Hello All,
This Monday, I'm looking at spending a morning railfanning on the Staten Island Rapid Transit. My starting point would be Eltingville, since I would be doing the NJT HBLRT/NYCMTA bus shuffle at Bayonne's 34th Street.
Where could I get good shots along the line in the morning? What stations should I be extra careful around, in terms of being in rough neighborhoods?
I went on to the nycsubway site, and looked at some of the photographs. I see that Grant City might be a good place, as long as if I'm there when the sun isn't too low. Tottenville is nice.
I rode the line end to end in Jan of 07, and last year, between Tompkinsville and St. George.
Thanks for any advice.
