Deets: Baseball is back and the New York Transit Museum is stepping up to the plate with two special Nostalgia Rides to the Yankees’ and Mets’ home opener games! For just the cost of your subway fare, fans can hop aboard a vintage train and take a ride into the past. You’ll arrive at the stadium just in time to watch your favorite team knock it out of the park.   

Thursday, March 27th at 12pm – Yankees' Home Opener Ride
For the Bronx Bombers home opener, the New York Transit Museum is rolling out not one, but two vintage heavy hitters. The museum’s legendary four-car 1917 Lo-V train and the beloved Train of Many Colors will depart from the uptown 4 train platform of Grand Central-42 St at 12pm on Thursday, March 27th and will run non-stop to 161 St-Yankee Stadium. With the old-school charm of the Lo-V and the classic style of the redbirds, these trains will have you feeling like you entered an era when Babe Ruth was still making headlines. 

Friday, April 4th at 12pm – Mets' Home Opener Ride
Let’s Go Mets! To help the Amazin’ Mets start their season, the museum’s redbirds will take flight across the 7 line, leaving from 34 St-Hudson Yards at 12pm on Friday, April 4th, and making several stops on the way to Mets-Willets Point. Whether you're a longtime Flushing Faithful or a first-time visitor to Citi Field, you’ll arrive at the ballpark feeling ready for the season. This is our year! From the first pitch to the final out, it's all about Mets magic. 

Hint for the Average Socialite: New York Transit Museum Nostalgia Rides are an immersive, hands-on experience. Riders can sit on the seats, hold onto the handrails, read the vintage advertisements, and travel through time to the early days of the New York subway system. All it takes is good timing and your subway fare to get you onboard the vintage subway train. Learn more!
