135 Street is a Lenox Avenue station and where the 2 and 3
meet for their long haul together to Brooklyn. The station has two
platforms and three tracks, the middle track used most recently for
Late Night 3
shuttle trains until they were replaced with buses in 1998. The station
has two side platforms with no crossover/under, which is a bit of a
problem because passengers wishing to transfer between trains from the
Bronx and the 3
to 148 Street must go all the way down to 110 Street the first station
with a free directional transfer. The station has one entrance in each
direction (with two staircases to the street each) and was recently
renovated, an interesting aspect is that there are 3 different types of
trim (original ceramic relief, mosaic of one and a modern 135
lettering), and two different types of name tablets (original looking
and modern font and design)
