Under the bridge  Contributor's Pick!       
The LIRR Rockaway Branch made for the most part a straight dive south from the Main Line at Rego Park, through Forest Park and Woodhaven toward Jamaica Bay. A little up the line from Woodhaven, it passed under Metropolitan Av, where the track was not quite so overgrown, at least under the bridge. Except for the signs of neglect since its abandonment in 1962, it looks like you could almost run trains on it, as most of the components are still in place.
