Follow the MTA's Vintage Holiday Nostalgia Train Through Several New York City Stations

Railfan and YouTube uploader Fan Railer recently followed the MTA's vintage Holiday Nostalgia Train as it passed through several subway stations in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Aside from the regularly scheduled public runs on Sundays in December, the R1/R9 Holiday Train made a special run on Saturday, 12/10/16, as part of a New York Transit Museum excursion, which picked up passengers at Second Avenue, before running to the NYTM for late-night festivities. During this chase, we see the train arriving @ Second Ave after deadheading from 207th Street Yard, passing Broadway - Lafayette Street after picking up passengers, relaying @ Hoyt - Schermerhorn Streets into the Museum, deadheading through Utica Ave, and deadheading through 181st Street.
