MTA - Second Avenue Subway Station

It's like this station is forgotten but there is significant traffic at this location.

NORTH OR SOUTH, UPTOWN OR DOWNTOWN, two Baroque bad boys dominated this F line stop fleetingly Friday. Watch the videos and appreciate the violinist and cellist playing across double tracks, cresting as the rails signaled the approach of a Brooklyn-bound F surely carrying boom-box buskers endangering passengers.

This place is for viewing your love one. A funeral place.

A lot of homeless roam here.it's dirty.

This station name is not to be confused with the other 2nd avenue station that's been undergoing decades lojg construction. This station is surprisingly clean for a moderately sized station. 4 tracks, only 2 active - one uptown and the other downtown. Both tracks support the F-line. There is cellular service at this station. There is also a 24-hour booth at the 1st avenue entrance. No elevators or escalators. No kiosk for information, but there are help points installed around the platforms.

Long before the second avenue Q train was a glimmer in the governor's eye, the Second avenue station sat like an unwanted child. And some decades later, here the station still sits - dark, decrepit, desolate; boiling in the summers, freezing in the winters, and smelling of the worst odors ever imaginable in a NYC subway and believe me, I've smelt some bad ones in my years as a straphanger. More annoyingly though is the convoluted set up of this station. To get an uptown F train, you need to be on a completely different track than the downtown train. Now repeat this process for the linked M train, which is marketed as being linked to the station. Nope - another set of tracks a level below the bifurcated F lines. More annoyingly is the fact that the 2 train lines refuse to talk to each other - like a couple in the middle of a divorce - refusing to alert the poor commuters which train will come first. If you look at the F clock, only F trains will show up, while to get the arrivals of the M train, you need to run to the other side of the station.

2 Avenue is situated in the Lower East Side, the station served as a terminus for the V train which retired in 2010, the V may be gone, but that does not mean the stations terminal says were over, during Rush Hour, they will send 1 or 2 M trains to the terminate at the station. 2 Avenue is served primarily by the F train, if there are works being done the A and C trains will stop here. Upon completion the 2nd Avenue Subways T train will stop here, the station also has an out of system transfer to the M15 SBS and the M15 bus. The station could improve in several ways, it smells like urine and the paint and plaster are pealing, and they need to renovate it. Otherwise its a good station. One more thing, just because the V train is gone, that it's soul is...

It's a subway station.

Nothing special about this train station although it is where the holiday train stunts during the holiday season from Thanksgiving to Christmas.
