Talk:Canal Street station (New York City Subway)

Naming

So Canal Street is the only name for this station. The problem is that it's not the only Canal Street station. I'm not sure what to do here; maybe we could include Chinatown in the disambiguation? Or maybe use Canal Street (BMT-IRT)? --NE2 20:03, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Personally, I'd rather split the article up again. We don't use neighborhood names in the article titles, nor do we use division monikers without lines. Larry V (talk | e-mail) 20:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

But why not? Probably because we don't have any comparable cases. I don't know about the IRT connection, but I'd assume that the BMT built this as a major transfer point with easy connections between the three lines. --NE2 20:40, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Look through the project talk archives. Plus, it doesn't look good; who really knows what the IND/BMT/IRT divisions are? Leave it at NYCS then; this is an extreme case. Larry V (talk | e-mail) 21:40, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:BMT Nassau Street Line platforms.jpg

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Track map

@Epicgenius: Could you possibly find a way to add the bellmouths at Canal to the track diagram? Thanks.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 19:59, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

@Kew Gardens 613: Which bellmouths are you referring to? According to this map, the only bellmouths near a station at "Canal Street" are the IND Eighth Avenue Line bellmouths. I could be missing something though. epicgenius (talk) 20:02, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

He doesn't list all bellmouths. There are bellmouths for a crosstown line along Canal Street. See here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvlyUdMii-A.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 20:10, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

@Kew Gardens 613:  Done. epicgenius (talk) 20:20, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
