New York City Transit Authority A Line from 207th Street, Manhattan to Lefferts
Blvd, Queens

Thank You for downloading our depiction of this non-fictional NYC Subway Line. The A line is one of the most famous lines in New York City. The A originally ran from 207th Street in Upper Manhattan and terminated at Hudson Terminal (Chambers Street) on September 10, 1932. Through the years it was extended into Brooklyn and finally to Queens in 1956. In Queens the A branches off after Rockaway Blvd some trains go to the Rockaways and some to Lefferts Blvd. We will be building the entire line in the future, check back for updates on it`s progress.

I would like to thank the following people:
Mr. Mackoy for his tremendous contribution to the train-sim world giving us BVE and all other Route Builders throughout the world for their contributions to the BVE world.

The NYCTBA team:

Tony C for his artwork on most of the textures on this route Jose R for his announcements Robert Marrero for allowing some of his objects from his routes Erik for his SMEE train objects Marcus, Clayton, & Trevor for keeping our website the best BVE site around Ernie Alston & Tony Montalbano for the use of some of their objects Phil & Jeff for their research into the route which helped me immensely And everyone else who gave me encouragement to put all the contributions together
I would also like to make a couple of dedications:
To all the innocent victims of 9/11/01, WE WILL NEVER FORGET
To all the military personnel from the USA and all countries that are fighting the war against terrorism wherever it is found , GOD BLESS YOU, WE PRAY FOR YOU.
This Route is a BETA release, Some of the stations are not detailed totally, I will be working on them and when completed, the route will be re-released.
You need to have the Lefferts Shuttle Route to run this route, because they share objects.
The Route is depicted as accurately as I could make it, distances, grades and signals are as close as I could make them
The speed limit for this route is 35mph (56kph), unless otherwise noted by the markers that appear throughout the route. If you keep to the speed restrictions, you should have no or very minimal delays as you drive the route. Just be aware also of the many steep grades on the route. Some upgrades, especially between Dyckman Street and 175th Street, you will be lucky to get over 40kph. Watch your speed on the steeper downgrades, before you will pick up a lot of speed if you`re not careful. I did not program speed restrictions in, the only consequense will be waiting for the signals to clear if you run too fast.
That`s about it, Look for the completed version, sometime in the future

Thank You again for downloading this route. Enjoy!
