These are the lines that take me to my friend’s place on the upper-east side, to chinatown, to the brooklyn bridge and staten island ferry, oh and to Harlem once too.

pluses: run pretty often, have the boards that light up and tell you which stop you are on.

minuses: 6 train platform seems to get really hot in summer while waiting, must be higher up than my beloved G. As someone pointed out, the 6 stop in chinatown is about the smelliest platform out there, with yellow water running along the tracks when it rains.
