New York’s Lost Double-Decker Elevated Trains

Before the subway tunneled beneath Manhattan, New York’s transit network rose above it all — and in some places, it rose twice. In this episode, we uncover the forgotten story of New York’s double-decker elevated railways — a system of stacked stations, two-tier junctions, and sky-high platforms that once ruled the city. From express trains thundering over locals, to ferry terminals connected directly to upper-level walkways, this system was nothing short of an engineering marvel. But over time, these vertical giants became costly, outdated, and unloved. By 1973, the last double-deck El had vanished — leaving behind only fragments hidden in plain sight. Join us as we explore the strange rise and dramatic fall of a second city in the sky. #newyorkhistory #elevatedtrains #itshistory Support the Channel by becoming a member 👉    / @itshistory   IT’S HISTORY - Weekly Tales of American Urban Decay as presented by your host Ryan Socash.    • IT'S HISTORY 🔥 Trending   » Subscribe:    / @itshistory   » Listen podcasts: https://ffm.bio/itshistory » CONTACT For brands, agencies, and sponsorships: [email protected] Click here to book a sponsorship with me http://thoughtleaders.io/reserve/its-... » DISCLAIMER Some media elements in this video are used under the fair use provisions of U.S. copyright law (Title 17, Section 107) for purposes of commentary, criticism, and education.
