I'm old enough now to have ridden it ... six tokens for a quarter....  
1.6 miles long ... the Queensboro Bridge Railway was shorter than the  
Pennsylvania Trolley Museum and it included a nice ride on the  
outside edge of the Queensboro Bridge looking down into the East  
River without even a girder to give comfort to the paranoid.  The  
picture was taken in the Second Avenue terminal in Manhattan.    The  
motorman's toilet was the back side of any one of the columns that a  
passenger could not see.
