Then we tried our luck this morning. </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">Standing at the midtown station downtown track platform, we were curious how long we actually had to wait. L said, if we see V train pulling off at uptown track, we just gotta run over there. Literilly not even one minute after he said so, we saw a dark green, old look train pulling off along uptown track! </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">Run! We jumped to climb up stairs, ran cross overpass, ran down stairs to the updown platform. We got on the train!</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">Never thought we could be so lucky!</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">We were quite amazed to see the old train - exposed light bulbs on the ceiling, ceiling fans, wicker seats, old ads........Everything there is just back from 1930s!</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">We walked from one car to another..........taking photos. We were excited to have this special train ride. </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#cccccc;">It's nostalgic, just as all those that New York has planted in my memories..........</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#ffffff;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/7699859@N03/sets/72157603475225801/show/"><span style="font-size:85%;">more photos</span> </a></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3352288362681010438-8519390148271476552?l=jadezheng.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jade Zhenghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09707223598458098901noreply@blogger.com0
