Thanks for the link. *It is truly an astounding station.

I managed to get a ride through it a few years ago, but most of the
lighting was off at the time. I've heard that they don't throw
passengers off the 6 train at Brooklyn bridge any more, so it's easy
to do it now. It's not far from the old Court Street station where
the Transit Museum is now, so worth doing both at the same time.

I see. I wasn't able to read the article at the time; it was coming
up with the Daily Mail heading, but the rest was blank. That was on
the bus on the way to work; I'll try again later.

What is the deal with the outer track on the South Ferry loop, now that
the Brodway Local no longer stops there?

South Ferry loop is not open to passengers and you can be fined for
criminal trespassing, IIRC.

... except for the fact that the loop and the transit museum are in
different boroughs.

Assuming that you rode the loop first, you would have to cross back over
to the downtown tracks, at Brooklyn Bridge - City Hall, get on a
Lexington Line train for another four stops to Borough Hall in Brooklyn
and then walk another two or three blocks to Court Street station.

Different boroughs, but not far apart, and it doesn't take long to get from
one to the other. Anybody who was interested in seeing one would be quite
likely to be interested in the other. I would guess 20-25 minutes to get
from one to the other? It's several years since I did it, so I can't
remember exactly how long it took.
