This is an uncommon sight. This is part of a track exchange mechanism, or "railroad switch", as they're known. They're never located this close to a station platform. But this is the temporary platform built on the express track on the 4th Ave station, on the F & G. I love the color of rust.

The OTB in action on 5th ave before it closed! taken in 2009. I have gone back to film so not as fast to update anymore and not as up to date as digital unless I take photos with my cell phone.
