Points of Interest	This is a very unique station. It is above Manhattan Valley (125th St). As such the station is actually at or near the same level as the two underground stations just north and south of here (137th & 116th). It is the streets that drop, the subway does not really change grade.

A view from the back of a Northbd train at 125th Street. Note how the track remains level, but Broadway raises up to send the line back underground. (9/96)	IRT LO-V train seen on a railfan trip at 125th Street and Bdwy. These held down IRT services for many years. (9/95)
