The world’s largest subway equipment service facility, this spectacular inspection, maintenance, and overhaul operation is a model of safety, efficiency, and professionalism which serves as an example for transit operators worldwide. Agencies from the world’s major cities tour this facility on a regular basis. This facility also embraces its long history as a critical part of the New York City Subway system and hosts a wealth of industrial architecture, historical artifacts, and New York City history. The Coney Island Complex staff include some of New York’s top mechanics and artisans who produce beautiful work which keep our trains moving with exceptionally high reliability.

Great place to spend 8 hours a day 5 days a week. Trains are roomy and empty. Atmosphere is usually calm, managers are soft spoken, during working hours you can hear a pin drop - they taking noise pollution seriously here. Workers are looking happy and well rested: they a fully ready for day full of accomplishments. Whatever those might be.

This is a huge and amazing repair facility for NYC Transit's train cars. It has the ability to lift at least 30 subway cars 5 feet above the floor. There are hundreds of employees working here at any given time and makes parking a nightmare. This shop repairs and rebuilds numerous subway cars as old as 40 years old. This facility is open 24 hours a day and employs three shifts. It is a very old facility but well maintained considering its age.
