Fort Hamilton Parkway is a local station on the IND Culver Line of the New York City Subway. It is served by the F and G trains at all times. ==Station layout== There are two local tracks and two side platforms. The unused express tracks run under the station and are not visible from the platforms. The tile band is orange-yellow with a medium red-brown border; the tablets are set in the reverse of this color scheme. Several replacement tiles in bright orange-red have been observed. The full-time, northern entrance is by Greenwood and Prospect Avenues, with two street staircases and a block-long passageway northward to the northeast corner of Prospect Avenue and Reeve Place for one additional street staircase. There is a closed staircase that would have led to a fare control area at platform level at the Manhattan-bound side. This area is gated shut, and about half of the space is taken by station facilities with additional tiles. The south end exit is to Fort Hamilton Parkway and has full-time HEET access and a former booth. The only exit at this end is a ramp (no staircase) that runs along the western side of the Prospect Expressway, up and down a small hill. This exit replaced the original 1933 staircase exit, when Robert Moses built the expressway. From the mezzanine area, one can see the variation in tile colors and styles when the new entrance was added in 1962, coinciding with the opening of the expressway. This can be seen when facing the ramp. South of this station, on the express tracks on the lower level, there are bellmouths for a proposed Fort Hamilton Parkway line. One line would have terminated at 86th Street, and the other line would split away from the mainline, and would have run to Staten Island. These lines were planned as part of the IND Second System. The IND Culver Line's Church Avenue and Fort Hamilton Parkway stations were the last underground stations to get fluorescent lighting on platform level, which replaced the incandescent lighting in 1987. 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「Fort Hamilton Parkway (IND Culver Line)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
