Puzzle Description:
I take it almost every day...the 7 train, with the Queens and Manhattan skyline in the background. You can see the conductor in the window on the left. Or is that the motorman? I always get who sits where confused.

this brings back soooo many memories... i grew up in chgo with the subways and elevateds#9: Jane Doe (telly) on Aug 9, 2010
nice. Enjoyable solve and image#10: Liz P (Lizteach) on Aug 9, 2010 [SPOILER]
The 7 train takes one to Shea Stadium, so Jota is referencing the Yankees-Mets fan rivalry. I am not a big baseball fan, but I do root for the Mets over the Yankees; however, I am not one of those Mets fans who celebrate every time the Yankees lose.#11: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Aug 9, 2010

I was expecting elevator doors.#13: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Aug 9, 2010
Since trains are driven from the right side, the person in the window would be the motorman.
Really nicely done - a beautiful image, but I prefer the train that takes me to Target Field!
Great image! Fun puzzle.#14: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Aug 10, 2010
Awesome! We don't have trains here but I love to ride them if I get to the big city.#15: Tonia Bergh (tonia) on Aug 10, 2010

Excellent puzzle. I like your use of perspective and the city in the background. Well done.#18: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Aug 22, 2010

Thanks, all.#20: Kit E. Katz (hello) on Apr 3, 2011
Nice pic Lizteach. I agree with #7.#21: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Sep 27, 2012 [SPOILER]
When I was in NYC, I usually took the A*C*E line, and yes, I'd start singing "Take the A Train" everytime I got on it. Occasionally I'd take the 6 up Lexington to visit the museums.#22: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Sep 4, 2020
FANTASTIC pic! When I go to Fenway, (boo-hiss Yankees!) we drive to the suburbs and train in from there because Boston traffic is impossible.
