How to Transfer to the G train from the E train on the New York Subway

On the New York subway, long underground transfers are confusing and annoying. The transfer from the E train to the G train is no exception, but easily navigated with a little know how.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Metro Card

1. Enter the E train in the very first car or as close as you can get to it.

2. Exit the E train at 23rd St./Ely Ave in Queens, NY.

3. Walk in the direction the train was moving up a short set of stairs ahead of you.

4. Veer right and enter a large hallway with two moving sidewalk platforms to your right.

5. Continue down the hallway past both moving sidewalks until you intersect with another hallway.

6. The entrance to the G train platform is a downward staircase ahead and on your right.

Tips & Warnings
