The Third Avenue El subway line ran high in the sky at blistering speeds (for their time) from Gun Hill Road to City Hall. With every stop identified, the outstanding film work by Frank Pfuhler, Jr. shows run pasts in, on, and over the great double track, double deck cantilever swing span across the Harlem River, with 90 degree turns. Let the express train speeds lift you out of your seat or settle back to enjoy all the things that made the Third Avenue El the most beloved, most exhilarating, and most hated of all forms of New York City transportation. The gingerbread fretwork, Hansel & Gretel wrought iron, mandala-stained glass windows, and pot-bellied stoves are captured with exquisite stills by Lothar Stelter.
Narration. Sunday River Productions programs may feature Color film, B&W film, Music, Dubbed Sound and still photos.

Having lived and grown up in Brooklyn New York this fantastic video brings back so many wonderful memories of the days where I would cut school and take a ride on the El to Coney Island. A must have for all rail fans no matter where you live.
