Train Travel

There are several ways to do this, but most of them require you to make 2 transfers. I will list all the options in Manhattan, even though some of them are similar, in the event that certain trains are out of service. For example, the L train and the 7 train are undergoing periodic trackwork right now and sometimes aren't running in Manhattan.

Free transfer is available between the 59th Street-Lexington Avenue Station on the 4-5-6 and the 63rd Street-Lexington Avenue Station on the F. This is a hassle, because you have to walk 4 blocks underground to transfer, and the transfer is only free if you pay with a plastic Metrocard (if you use paper Single Ride Tickets you have to pay 2 separate fares). But it's the only direct transfer between the 4-5-6 and the F.

There is another direct transfer, but only from the Downtown 6 (or the Downtown 4 late nights). Free transfer is available between the Broadway-Lafayette Station on the B-D-F-M, and the Bleeker Street Station on the Downtown 6 (not the Uptown 6). Since Bleeker Street is a local stop, you can't transfer from the 4 or 5 express trains, except late nights (1 to 5 AM), when the 4 runs local, in which case you can transfer from the Downtown 4.

You can also take the 4-5-6 to 42nd Street-Grand Central, transfer there to the Manhattan-bound 7 train, 1 stop, to 42nd Street-Bryant Park, and then transfer to the F at Bryant Park.

Or, you can take the 4-5-6 to 14th Street-Union Square, transfer there to the Manhattan-bound L train, 1 stop, to 6th Avenue-14th Street, and then transfer at 6th Avenue-14th Street to the F.

Or, you can take the 4-5-6 to 14th Street-Union Square, transfer there to the Uptown N-R-Q-W, take the N-R-Q-W to 34th Street-Herald Square, and transfer at Herald Square to the F.

Or, you can take the 4 or 5 (not the 6) to Fulton Street, transfer there to the Uptown 2, and take the Uptown 2 to 14th Street (at 7th Avenue). This station is connected to the 6th Avenue-14th Street Station. So you'd walk 1 avenue block east underground, then transfer to the F at 6th Avenue-14th Street.

Or, you can take the 4 or 5 (not the 6) to Fulton Street, transfer there to the Uptown A or C, take the A or C to West 4th Street, and transfer at West 4th to the F.

Or, you can take the 4 or 5 (not the 6) to Fulton Street, transfer there to the Uptown J-Z, take the J-Z to Delancey-Essex Street, and transfer at Delancey-Essex Street to the F.

You can transfer from the E train to the M train at Lexington Avenue-53rd Street, 5th Avenue-53rd Street, and West 4th Street.

You can transfer from the E train to the D train at 7th Avenue and West 4th Street.

You can transfer from the F to the D or Mat 47th-50th Street-Rockefeller Center, 42nd Street-Bryant Park, 34th Street-Herald Square, West 4th Street and Broadway-Lafayette.

You can also transfer from the F to the M at 14th Street and Delancey-Essex Street.

No, not on normal trains.

There is an old Royal Train in the National Railway Museum in York with a bath in it, but not on normal trains. For a start, the water would splush out of the bath when it went around a corner!

Modern long distance trains have a toilet in each carriage. Local trains often do not.
Yes, it changes from place to place, but some have a bathroom in every car of a passenger train and some in every second car. Trains carrying supplies instead of people also have them for the crew to use.

1260-1278 60th Street is in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn, in the 11219 zip code. To get there from Norwood, in the Bronx, you'd take the Downtown 1 train (of the 1-2-3, the red line) from 242nd Street and Broadway, 238th Street and Broadway, or 231st Street and Broadway, to 42nd Street-Times Square.

Transfer at Times Square to the Downtown N train (of the N-R-Q-W, the yellow line) to New Utrecht Avenue-62nd Street.

If you want, you can also transfer from the 1 train to the D train (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) at 59th Street-Columbus Circle. The D train also stops at New Utrecht Avenue-62nd Street. Unlike the N, the Dis an express train, so it should get you there faster than the N.

You will get off the subway on New Utrecht Avenue. Walk two blocks north on New Utrecht Avenue until you get to 60th Street. Turn left and walk west on 60th Street. Your destination is on the next block, between 13th and 12th Avenues.
