F to West 4th; then switch to the D?
A to Columbus Circle, then the D?
A to 125th, then the D?
F south to downtown Brooklyn, then walk to the 4 train uptown?
2 from Clark Street to 145th, then the 4?
or something else?
Thanks
Rollo,
Is this a weekday or weekend trip?
It is hard to say which is the best. A lot depends on the closest station to you.
If it is a weekday trip to the Stadium then the
D won't help in the Bronx because during evening rush the D is express in the Bronx. 161st St is a local stop. You would need the
B at 145th St.
The
2 doesn't stop at 145th St. I think you mean 149th St-Grand Concourse. I would not recommend this because by the time you get to 149th-GC the
4 would be extrememly crowded. If you wanted to use the
2 or
3 from Clark St go in the other direction one stop to Borough Hall. Use the passageway at the end of the upstairs platform to the
4. There are less stops in Manhattan on the
4 but the line gets crowded.
If High St is closer then use the
A to Columbus Circle (or 125th St) then change for the
D (or the
B).
If the York St Station is closer then take the
F to Bleecker (or W4 if you prefer) for the
D. If it is rush hour take the
D and then wait for the
B at 145th St.
Whatever you decide to do enjoy the game.
