OK, Jeff,
Commuters on the DL&W & EL later had several choices to get to the Big 
Apple.
1. the ferries (with great donuts & coffie while u watched the skyline. They 
took u to Barclay St & that was a short walk if u worked downtown in the 
financial district.
2. The H&M (Hudson tubes). These took u to most of the high points & all the 
way uptown to 33rd St. Many of the stops could be at an interchange with 
subways for further uptown. There was also a convenient terminal on the H&M 
downtown on what became the site of the twin towers (before our islamic 
friends blew them up in an effort to convince us of the correctness of their 
worldview).
