This user has uploaded 35 videos of old NYC subway and elevated footage. Boston stuff too.

Check out this 1 hour long video on the IND/BMT Elevated Lines from the 1940s to the 1980s.

At the 21:59 mark shows the Liberty El at the point of the Rockaway connection prior to that connection being made.

At the 23:42 mark there is a live shot of the Canarsie Line railroad crossing in action.

A lot of awesome footage!!!

Check this one out!!!

Pre-Worlds Fair Flushing line footage.

At the 44:14 mark old SIRT live video complete with railroad crossings!!!

Also old PATH (H&M at the time) and Newark City Subway.

I can't see how this was unnoticed in the past or am I just late to the show.
