'I take this pic often as I approach the city. It's like looking for the skyline when I come in from the airport or through the tunnel from NJ. I like knowing that I am almost home. :-)'

The Q runs to and from 96th a ritzy looking new station on the Upper East Side of (Manhattan) and takes you all the way down to Coney Island and its entertainment and beaches.

from Wikipedia :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(New_York_City_Subway_service)#2005–present:_Extensions_to_Astoria_and_Second_Avenue |
The tracks cross the East River on the Manhattan Bridge. A service has been running since 1878, The Q service proper started in 1920.
There are plans to take it up to 125 St. in East Harlem giving people here a direct train to the beach within the next five years!
The great notion, reflecting on the Q train and its stops across the city, is it like being back in New York.
