The New York Transit Museum has a wonderful exhibit on how the NYC Transit Revenue Department collected the fares from NYC Subways and Buses from 1951 – 2006. Two subway cars from the Money Car consist of ten trains is also on exhibition at the Museum located at the corner of Boerum Place and Schermerhorn Street in Brooklyn Heights. A second exhibit in Penn Station explores the architectural and construction elements of building the East Side Access tunnel, allowing Long Island Rail Road access to the East Side of Manhattan in a new station hub to be built under Grand Central Terminal.
