Fordham Road is an express station on the IND Concourse Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Fordham Road and Grand Concourse in one of the largest shopping districts in New York City, it is served by the D train at all times and the B train during rush hours only. ==Station layout== It is the largest station on the Concourse Line, as it contains numerous closed stairs and passageways. The southbound island platform widens at the north end to allow a wall that splits it half, creating 2 "side" platforms. The northbound island platform is like others found throughout the system. The platform wall once had a passageway from the first staircase at the Fordham Road side from the middle track to the local one; it is cordoned off permanently. The full-time side at East 188th Street has four street stairs, one for each corner, while the part-time side at Fordham Road has two, both at the east side of Fordham and Concourse. The part-time entrance is not accessible from the "local" side of the southbound platform There were two additional street stairs and passageway at the west side of Fordham and Grand Concourse. They were nearest to the former location of ''Alexander's'' and ''Caldor''. One exit led directly to the stores. Today, the building houses a mix of small businesses. There is a Rapid Transit Operations Field Office at the south end of the full-time mezzanine, but it is a result of the shortening of the mezzanine and elimination of two platform stairs for each side. Both platforms have six platform stairs. The northbound one also has two closed stairs while the southbound has four, two at each end. The tile band is Concord Grape with Black Grape borders. The tablets show a different shade of purple in the center. A closed tower sits on the south end at the southbound platform. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fordham Road (IND Concourse Line)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
