Is there a train from Chattanooga to Memphis?

No. Amtrak only runs in Tennesse along the western border. There is a bus from Chattanooga to Memphis. A Greyhound bus ticket from Chattanooga to Memphis will cost approximately $59.40 - $76.50 depending on the fare type selected. The price of a bus ticket depends on the fare type purchased (example: refundable, non-refundable, return, one-way). Price confirmation can be obtained online or through your local Greyhound Operator.

Which train do you take to 34th Street the 2 train or 5 train?

Take the 2 train. The 2 train stops at 34th Street-Penn Station (at 7th Avenue).

The 5 train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line) does not stop at 34th Street. Instead, you would have to transfer to the Downtown 6 at 42nd Street-Grand Central Station, and take the 6 one stop to 33rd Street (at Park Avenue South).

Although, if you are going very far east on 34th Street (like, 3rd, 2nd or 1st Avenue) then you may want to take the 5 and transfer to the 6, because the walk from the station will be much shorter. The 1-2-3 line runs on the West Side, while the 4-5-6 runs on the East Side.

What does a travel consultant do?

A travel consultant will use his/her expertise in a destination or mode of travel to craft a fabulous custom-designed journey for you. Many agencies charge a fee for this, and rightly so because it is time-consuming and requires professional expertise. This is especially true for a complex, multi-country itinerary. Expect to pay and up-front, nonrefundable fee for a customized program. This may or may not be applicable to the final payment. i

When did the last steam train run on londons underground?

The last steam passenger train was in 1961 but LT kept a number of steam engines for maintainace work when the electic power was switched off. The engines were used only on the surface and sub surface lines like the Met, District and Circle Lines NOT on the deep level tube lines. LT at the end operated ex GWR pannier tank 0-6-0's bought 2nd hand from BR. They were based at Neasden but were also used at Lillie Bridge(near Earls Court) and Acton works. Famously a number of years after BR had finished with steam engines a steam train would leave Neasden each day and run to Watford tip with all the waste materials. It was rather like a ghost train!! The FINAL steam train was in June 1971 when LT ran a final commemorative train from Moorgate to Neasden. LT did however allow steam trains to run again on the Met in the 1980's & 90's but they were for steams fans and not normal operations.

How safe is the New York City Subway system?

Definitely Safe to RideAs is the case in any major city. one should always be aware of their surrondings and take simple steps to avoid making themselves an obviouse target for criminals. that said I would have to say yes the Washington metro is quite safe to ride at night. infact i never have any doubts about the metro ride and I ride late night trains (11:30 pm- 2:30am) at least 10 or 12 times a month. depending on where I'm going, or coming from getting to themetro station maybe another thing completely. but I would say the Washington DC Metro is definitelysafe to ride at night

What subway do you take from Union Square to Penn Station?

Take the Uptown N-R-Q (the yellow line) from 14th Street-Union Square to 42nd Street-Times Square.

Transfer at Times Square to the Downtown 1-2-3 (the red line), one stop, to 34th Street-Penn Station.

Which subway do you take from Port Authority to Central Park?

Take the Uptown C train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 34th Street-Penn Station to 59th Street-Columbus Circle. You will get off at the southwest corner of the park.

Central Park runs south to north from 59th Street to 110th Street, and west to east from 8th Avenue/Central Park West (the portion of 8th Avenue that borders Central Park is called Central Park West) to 5th Avenue.

The portion of 59th Street that borders Central Park is called Central Park South, and the portion of 110th Street that borders the park is called Central Park North. But the portion of 5th Avenue that borders the park is NOT called Central Park East, for some reason.

What subway line do you take from Columbus Circle to TriBeCa?

You can take the Uptown 1 train (of the 1-2-3, the red line), one stop, from 59th Street-Columbus Circle to 66th Street-Lincoln Center. But I would just walk. It's only 7 blocks straight up Broadway.

How do you get from Penn Station to 72nd street?

It's very easy. You don't have to make any transfers. You have two options, the 1-2-3 (the red line) and the A-C-E(the blue line).

On the 1-2-3:

1) Take the Uptown 1-2-3 from 34th Street (Penn Station) to 96th Street. In this case, it is preferable to take the 2or 3, instead of the 1. All three of these trains (the 1, the 2 and the 3) stop at 96th Street. However, the 2 and 3 are express trains, while the 1 is local. If you take the 2 or 3, there will be only three stops: 34th Street (Penn Station) ---> 42nd Street (Times Square) ---> 72nd Street ---> 96th Street. On the 1 train, there will be eight stops.

2) You will exit the subway at 96th Street and Broadway. Walk two blocks east to 96th and Columbus: Broadway ---> Amsterdam Avenue ---> Columbus Avenue.

On the A-C-E:

1) Take the Uptown C train from 34th Street (Penn Station) to 96th Street. DO NOT take the A or E trains. The A is an express train, and, unlike with the 1-2-3, 96th Street is NOT an express stop on the A-C-E. The A train will not stop at 96th Street, and the E train goes to Queens after 50th Street. So, you can only take the C.

2) You will exit the subway at 96th Street and Central Park West. Walk one block west to Columbus Avenue.

How do you get from Bronx ny to Philadelphia by train?

How do you get to Brooklyn from Jamaica station?

There are a couple of stations in Jamaica, Queens, so I don't know which one you're talking about: there's the Jamaica-179th Street stop on the F line (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line), and there's also a Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer stop on the J-Z (the brown line) and E (of the A-C-E, the blue line).

The J-Z (the brown line) goes from Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer through north Brooklyn, and you can transfer to the L at the Broadway-Eastern Parkway Station.

The F goes from Jamaica-179th Street into Manhattan, and then back out to Brooklyn. Or, you can get off the F at Forest Hills-71st Avenue, and transfer to the R train (of the N-R-Q-W, the yellow line). The R train also goes into Manhattan, and then back out to Brooklyn (as do the Nand W). You can transfer from the R to the Nor W at the Lexington Avenue-59th Street stop in Manhattan.

You can also get from the J-Z or E (the Jamaica Center stop) to the F or R trains, if you wish. Take the E from Jamaica Center to Briarwood/Van Wyck Boulevard and transfer there for the F. Then you can transfer from the F to the R at Forest Hills-71st Avenue.

Or, you can get from the F to the J-Z. Take the F from Jamaica-179th Street to Briarwood/Van Wyck Boulevard, and transfer to the E. Take the E to Jamaica Center (or the stop before it, Sutphin Blvd Archer Ave) and transfer to the J-Z.

How do you get from Penn Station to St. John's University?

John Jay College is at 10th Avenue and W. 58 St. in New York City. Penn Station is at 34 St. between 7th and 8th Avenues. Here are 3 ways to get there:

1) Walk to the 8th Avenue Subway (blue circles on the signs); take any Uptown train except the E train to 59 St. The C is on one platform, the A is on a different platform, so you have to pick one.

2) Walk to the 7th Avenue Subway (red circles on the signs); take an uptown #1 train to 59 St.

3) Upstairs on 8th Avenue itself (one way northbound) take an M10 or M20 bus (the "M" means "Manhattan", so almost every bus has an M in front of the number). Get off at 58 St. or 59 St. Finally, if it's a nice day, and you have easy luggage, just walk north of 8th Avenue (or 9th Avenue, or 10th Avenue) toward higher number streets and get there for free. No matter what you have to go west (higher numbered addresses) to 10th Avenue for the school.

What subway do you take from Penn station to get to spring st?

You could take the Downtown C train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 34th Street-Penn Station to Spring Street (at 6th Avenue). Unless you are traveling late at night, in which case you take the A. The C (a local train) doesn't run at night, so at night the A, an express train, runs local.

Then you'd walk 7 blocks east to Broadway. They're short blocks, so it's only about a third of a mile.

But if you really don't want to walk, then you can take the Downtown A-C-E from Penn Station to West 4th Street (doesn't matter which you take) and then transfer at West 4th to the Downtown B-D-F-M, the orange line, (again, it doesn't matter which train you take). Take the Downtown B-D-F-M to Broadway-Lafayette.

You'll exit the subway at Houston Street, between Broadway and Lafayette Streets (actually, Crosby Street runs between Broadway and Lafayette Street, but it's a minor street). Walk 2 blocks south on Broadway to Spring Street.
