Which NYC Subway Terminal is the Best? (Tier List) | Transit Talk

The NYC Subway has nearly 500 stations! With that many stations, terminals are important because they allow trains to turn around and serve their route over and over again.
However, some terminals are better than others, with some of them having large curves or bumper blocks, forcing trains to run at slow speeds. Other terminals may only have one track, meaning they cannot handle large volumes of trains. Other terminals may have a yard connection, allowing trains to be put away easily. With all of these variables, I thought it'd make sense to compare them all and find out which terminal is the best in a fun tier list. Which NYC Subway terminal is the best? Watch to find out.
