SEPTA Routes 101 & 102 Poster

$30.00 – $80.00

Routes 101 and 102, along with the Norristown HSL, are all that remains of the Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Company lines, commonly known as the Red Arrow Lines. Route 101, which dates from 1913, runs from downtown Media to 69th St Transportation center along a dedicated ROW but within Media along the street. Route 102, which dates from 1906, runs from Sharon Hill to 69th St.

Routes 101 and 102 use the larger 5′ 2.5″ rail gauge which is also used by the Market-Frankford Line along with other trolleys in Philadelphia. The routes run a mixture of local and express services. Until a few years ago SEPTA gave these routes a brown color on the system map but recently changed them to green along with the Subway-Surface lines. To avoid confusion with the other poster the Routes 101 & 102 poster is the original brown.

    BMT Jamaica Line J/Z Subway Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The BMT Jamaica line is the second oldest continually operated rapid transit line in all of New York City (behind the Franklin Ave shuttle). Originally an elevated train from Driggs Ave in Williamsburg to Gates Ave where it connected with the existing Lexington Ave elevated (not to be confused with the Lexington Ave subway in Manhattan). Opened in 1885 the line was electrified and expanded east to Broadway Junction (1893) then to Jamaica (1913). When the Williamsburg Bridge opened in 1903 it was extended to an underground terminal at Delancey and Essex St on the Lower East Side.

    In 1918 a subway was opened connecting the existing terminal at Essex St to a new terminal downtown at Chambers St under the newly constructed Municipal Building. While the elevated line in Brooklyn was only 3 tracks (2 in many places) the new subway under Delancey and Centre Sts was 4 tracks and allowed for express service. The subway was further extended to connect to the new BMT Broadway line subway for service back into Brooklyn.

    Three trains run along the BMT Jamaica line. The J/Z runs local from Broad St in Manhattan weekdays (rush hours) and Chambers St all other times to Marcy Ave. After Marcy Ave at rush periods the J runs express to Myrtle Ave and Broadway Junction (running local all other times). After Broadway Junction the J and Z trains operate “skip-stop” service where each train alternates stops. Thus each train only stops at half of the stations. The original elevated track through Jamaica Center was demolished in the 1979 and service was rerouted along the new subway under Archer Ave.

    M trains once ran along an elevated line, the Myrtle Ave elevated, from downtown Brooklyn out to Middle Village-Metropolitan Ave. In the 1950s the section of track from downtown to Broadway (Brooklyn) was torn down and service was run from Broad St to Middle Village along the northern portion of the tracks. The M train made this run until 2010 when it was rerouted through the Chrystie St cut to run as local service along 6th Ave. On nights and on weekends the M train is cut back to a shuttle service from Myrtle Ave to Middle Village.

    CTA Brown Line El Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The Brown Line began as the Northwestern Elevated in 1907 and runs from its terminal at Kimball to the Loop and back, making a zig-zag through the northwest section of the city. At the terminal at Kimball trains run at street level with third-rail power which is rare for transit in the US and extremely dangerous for pedestrians. Brown Line trains run local with Red Line trains from Belmont to Fullerton. Recently the stations of the Brown Line were expanded and upgraded to be ADA compliant to deal with rapid population growth on the north side.

    CTA Pink Line El Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The Pink Line is the most recent addition to the CTA but uses some of the original tracks of the old Metropolitan West Side elevated. The Douglas Park branch opened in 1896 and ran as far west as Oak Park Ave until it was cut back to 54th Ave in Cicero. When the Garfield Park branch of the Met was removed and replaced by the Congress Line (running in the median of Interstate 290) the Douglas Park branch was connected to it and routed through the Milwaukee-Dearborn Subway.

    The Congress-Douglas Lines operated a skip-stop service with stations being designated as A, B, or A/B. The Douglas branch ran B trains exclusively until this service was discontinued. In 2005 the CTA began studies looking at making the Douglas branch a separate line, originally known as the Silver Line. In 2006 a contest found that pink was the preferred choice. The CTA rehabilitated a section of track known as the Paulina Connector which was part of the original Metropolitan elevated but was connected to the Lake St Line. This allows Douglas branch trains to run over the Loop for the first time in half a century.

    WMATA Red Line Metro Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    Breaking ground December 9th, 1969 the Red Line was the first section of the Washington Metro to open, from Farragut North to Rhode Island Ave, in 1976 in conjuncture with the nations Bicentennial. Over the next few years the line was extended to Dupont Circle and Silver Springs, MD and throughout the 1980s was slowly expanded to Shady Grove, MD and Wheaton, MD with a final extension to Glenmont opening in 1998.

    The Red Line is the most used line in the WAMA system and the only line that doesn’t share a route with another line. A two track line, all but four of the stations are single central platforms. Most of the line is underground; however, the eastern branch from Union Station to Silver Springs and the western branch from White Flint to Shady Grove runs above ground along the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad right-of-way.
