Strap hangers who need the D train are then forced to take the D train going towards Manhattan to their desired stop. Upon arriving at Coney Island Stillwell Avenue, this train stalled for ten minutes due to so-called "signal problem" to become sitting ducks. Aggravating and total frustration for a complete waste of time travel!!! However, at the 18th Avenue station there are two beautiful lighted glass art on the wall.

Reason being is that I used Google assistance for traveling. It would have been easier to catch the F train at 179th and Hillside Ave for convenience.

There's also elevator service for those who don't ambulate well and for the handicapped and elderly.

For only $2.75, same price as a subway ride, you can travel from American Veterans Memorial Pier to lower Manhattan Wall Street and Corlears Hook ( south of East River Park ). Also stops along Brooklyn such as Brooklyn Bridge Park. The schedule is pretty much on time and they stick to it so make sure you're on the pier when the ferry pulls up. Kiosk in the station to purchase tickets. Only downside is that this transportation mode is not part of MTA Metrocard which is ridiculous at this point. You pay separately for this service. NYC needs to work out a plan to have all transportation ( subway, bus, ferry ) all on one inclusive way to pay.

Warning if you want to return to this exact Bay Ride stop from Governor's Island you'll need to check the time table because it stops running around 6pm! But alternatively you can take the Governor's Island direct ferry back into Manhattan. It was such a smooth ferry ride from Bay Ride -- 10 minutes total (second stop from here) and the bottom/inside of the ferry had AC, a bar and snacks area!! Since it was my first time on this ferry I went to the top to enjoy the view and it was so nice! The ferry was late but I think you should still get there on time just in case because they left as soon as everyone boarded! Was nice to take a ferry in the summer vs. the MTA trains!

Well it's been 7 years since my last review thus it's time for an update.. Have things improved?…read more HAhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Yes, that is my answer. What a joke. Seven years and the only thing I can state is, unfortunately, a homeless man lived on the platform. Yes, it's awful, however, he looked menacing and I felt unsafe. When I asked the MTA personnel what is being done the answer I got was "Not the MTA's problem". Wow, I guess that was the best answer they got. It's improved a bit but there are numerous homeless sleeping on the train at this station. I think it's not just a police issue but the MTA personnel have to do more. The elevator construction in progress as you see in my picture has been going on for @2 years. As for the service, see my separate review for the R train. Enough said. This station gained another star for the elevator whenever it begins operation. As for me, I transfer off the R train at 59th and 4th because it's the sane thing to do.

They save me the hassle of having to take the mta and stop at every train station on the n to then transfer on the 7 just to get to flushing. It takes me 1.5 hours with mta but with these buses it only takes me around 40 mins give or take depending on the traffic. Not to mention I'm sitting in a comfy seat and don't have to deal with external issues. As of July 2021, I pay $5 one way. Using a rideshare app or calling car service would have costed me well over $40. The bus caters to the Chinese immigrant community that usually travels back and forth from the 3 different chinatowns (Brooklyn 8th ave, Manhattan chinatown, flushing queens) either for work, run errands or meet up with family. It gives the people mobility with comfort and it's community centered. If you are not Chinese it's still ok. Once you get to know the system that's in place you'll never want to take public transportation again.
