EE Broadway Local Gene Russianoff Registered: 11/28/06 Posts: 9496 Loc: Arizona, U.S.A.	These tv commercials aired in 1964-1965 and featured the I.R.T. Flushing Line and the brand new R36 World's Fair cars. You might like the music and hearing what the subway fare was.

RokuSix TWU President Registered: 07/28/07 Posts: 3809 Loc: The Bronx!	I don't think they have World's Fairs anymore. Edit: I just looked it up to make sure, and apparently, they still do exist. They're held, now, in various Asian countries. Edited by RokuSix (07/04/09 12:23 PM) _________________________ Six Says: Keep the drama to the soap operas.
