    If you are planning to transfer between uptown and downtown trains don't get off here. There are no transfers!

    Best not to enter the southbound train on the south side of 49th Street, especially at night and in the winter when the homeless camp out there.

    One of the only subway stations with Wi-Fi, yet still no screens to tell you when the next train will arrive. Figure that one out.

    Generally this is the station you use to got to Radio City Music Hall.

    Super confusing station. C and E trains are on separate track levels and local trains don’t always stop here. Save yourself the heartache, suck it up, and just catch the ACE at Times Square.

    Visitors use a single card for multiple entries, and add money to it as needed.

    You can get mobile service at the back of the C train platform going uptown and at the front going uptown.

    If you can't hear the announcements, stand at the top of the stairs. When you feel wind and E train is arriving.

    There are probably 3 E trains for every 1 C train going uptown. Be prepared to wait it out, esp. on weekends.

    The WiFi sucks, only use it when traveling with the C train because they are equally slow

    on the southbound side the loud extended beeps indicate a train approaching on the lower level.

    Be prepared to wait for what seems like an eternity for the C. Especially dowtown bound C's
