IV as the Liberty City Transport Authority subway. Other Series of baseball games between New York City teams are referred to as Subway Series. It is said that early 20th-century teams took the subway to their opponents' parks. The Brooklyn Dodgers played at Ebbets Field, located near the Prospect Park station on the BMT Brighton Line; the New York Giants played at the Polo Grounds, located near the 155th Street station of the IRT Ninth Avenue Line and the 155th Street station of the IND Concourse Line; and the New York Yankees played at Yankee Stadium, near 161st Street station on the IRT Jerome Avenue and IND Concourse lines. In 1993, a 16-year-old boy named Keron Thomas, who was obsessed with the city's subway system, put on a uniform and successfully impersonated a subway motorman. For three hours, he operated an train along its route, passengers none the wiser, until he rounded a curve too fast and tripped the emergency brakes. He was caught when he was unable to reset them. He received a suspended sentence and a lot of publicity. References New York City Subway New York City in popular culture Underground railways in fiction Films shot in New York (state)
