LIRR Port Jefferson Branch Poster

$30.00 – $80.00

The LIRR Port Jefferson Branch is a branch off the Main Line at Hicksville and was opened to Syosset in 1854. The line was extended to Northport in 1868 but due to disputes between the LIRR and the towns of Cold Spring and Huntington the new line bypassed both. In 1873 the line was extended to Port Jefferson but branched off south of Northport, leaving the original terminal a spur line that would be abandoned by 1899. In 1895 the line was extended a final time to Wading River with plans on continuing it to Riverhead, though this was never done. The Wading River extension was eventually abandoned in 1938. Due to rising ridership the LIRR is constructing a third track along the Main Line from Floral Park to Hicksville so many Port Jefferson and Ronkonkoma trains can run express to Jamaica.

    WMATA Orange Line Metro Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The Orange Line was the third leg of the Washington Metro to open, though service began running in 1978 as a one way service along the existing Blue Line from New Carrollton to National Airport. It wasn’t until a year later in 1979 that the Orange Line was extended out to Ballston when it began running in both directions. In 1986 the line was extended out to Vienna. Plans at the time to reroute the line through the fast developing Tysons Corner were eventually dropped to prevent a five year delay in construction.
    These plans were resurrected with the Silver Line being built through Tysons Corner on its way to Dulles Airport. The Orange Line through Virginia runs along the median of Interstate 66 from Vienna to Falls Church. Originally the line was to run along the median of I-66 through Arlington but city planners rerouted it through downtown Arlington which helped stimulate dense residential development in central Arlington.
    From Roslyn to Stadium-Armory the Orange and Blue lines share their downtown subway tunnel and split after ascending to the surface on a bridge over the Anacostia River. From here the Orange Line runs alongside the CSX/Amtrak ROW to New Carrollton.

    CTA Brown Line El Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The Brown Line began as the Northwestern Elevated in 1907 and runs from its terminal at Kimball to the Loop and back, making a zig-zag through the northwest section of the city. At the terminal at Kimball trains run at street level with third-rail power which is rare for transit in the US and extremely dangerous for pedestrians. Brown Line trains run local with Red Line trains from Belmont to Fullerton. Recently the stations of the Brown Line were expanded and upgraded to be ADA compliant to deal with rapid population growth on the north side.

    BART Richmond-Berryessa Line Poster

    $30.00 – $80.00

    The Bay Area Rapid Transit system (BART) was, along with the WMATA in Washington D.C., one of the great centrally planned post-war rapid transit systems aimed at addressing the rise of the highway and auto-centric suburbs after World War II in the United States. Planning began in the 1950s for a unified high speed rail system that would serve both the dense inner cities of San Francisco and Oakland and their newly expanding low-rise suburbs. Stations would be spaced closer in the central business districts and further out in the suburbs.

    Originally planned to connect Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties BART was scaled back when San Mateo dropped out in favor of commuter rail service and the Marin line was dropped due to engineering concerns about running a rail line over the Golden Gate Bridge. Construction began in 1964 and the initial segments began to come online in 1972 and the majority of the system opening by 1974.

    The Richmond-Warm Springs Line, also known as the East Bay Line, is the only line that does not enter San Francisco running from Richmond in the north through Oakland to Fremont in the south. Like most BART lines the Richmond-Fremont Line shares its tracks with other BART lines: the Richmond-Millbrae Line, the Pittsburg/Bay Point–SFO/Millbrae Line, the Fremont–Daly City Line, and the Dublin/Pleasanton–Daly City Line.
    The Richmond–Fremont Line was the first of BART’s five lines to open. Service from MacArthur to Fremont began on September 11, 1972, the first day of BART operation and was extended to Richmond on January 29, 1973.
    Construction has begun on a southern extension to San Jose; the first phase to Warm Springs/South Fremont opened in 2017 with the second phase to Milpitas and Berryessa opening in 2020.

    The Dublin/Pleasanton–Daly City Line, also known as the Dublin/Pleasanton Line, is the most recent BART line to open starting service in 1997. Branching off the
    Fremont Line in Ashland it runs east along the median of I-580 to Dublin.
    Plans are also being discussed to extend the line east to Livermore as either an electric third-rail BART train or Diesel Multiple Unit eBART train.
