Broadway Junction ( eng. Broadway Junction ) - Station of the New York Metro , part of the complex of the same name and located on the BMT Canarsie Line . The station is served by a single route - L , which operates around the clock.
The station consists of two tracks and two platforms. One platform is island, the other is side. The side platform is located on the southern route and is used by trains in the direction of the Canarsie area. The island platform, respectively, is served by trains in the direction of Manhattan, but in which case it can be used by trains in the opposite direction.
The elevated station is located quite high from the surface - this is one of the highest metro stations. The height is explained by the fact that the line passes above and so the BMT Jamaica Line Trestle Line . The northern end of the platforms is located below - the paths descend abruptly and literally after 200 meters enter the tunnel. In front of the tunnel there is a crossroads, which is not used for regular train traffic.
From the station you can clearly see the metrodepo located in close proximity You can also consider the airport. Kennedy , located 8 kilometers from the station, visible landing and takeoff aircraft. In 1999, the station was reconstructed, but not equipped with elevators.

Broadway Junction ( eng. Broadway Junction ) - station of the New York subway , part of the complex of the same name and located on the BMT Jamaica Line . The station is represented by three ways and two island platforms. It is intended to stop all trains, both local and express trains, but due to the lack of express services on this line, it is served only by local trains J and Z. Route J runs all the time, and Z only works during peak hours in the peak direction. At both ends of the platforms, access roads to the East New York Yard metro depot are located.
The station was opened under a different name - Broadway - Eastern Parkway , as there was direct access from the platforms to Eastern Parkway . With the closure of this exit, the name of the station was changed to the current one. There is a mezzanine located above the platforms - from here you can get to the neighboring interchange hub stations, right there is the only exit to the city.
