NYC subway question -- quick one
Please settle a friendly bet: The 6 train is local and the 4 and 5 are express, right? Or is it the other way around? And...at the 86th and Lex stop, to go downtown, you go down the stairs to the bottom-most platform, right?
We used to live there, but can't remember these things anymore!

The 6 is local, 4 and 5 are express.
At 86th Street, there is no free connection between the Uptown and Downtown sides- you have to exit the station to switch.
The upper level platform is for the 6 and the lower level platform is for the 4/5, going in both directions.
My usual cut is 10%.
