42nd Street Shuttle
- ... that trains on the 42nd Street Shuttle, the shortest route in the New York City Subway system, run a route of 2,700 feet (820 m) in 90 seconds? Source: New York Times (March 1, 2005). "The shuttle is unusual for more than just its short route: 2,700 feet. ... A typical trip on the crosstown shuttle, which connects Times Square and Grand Central, is only 90 seconds."
- ALT1:... that in 1962, the 42nd Street Shuttle became the first route in the New York City Subway to operate with automated trains? Source: New York Times (January 5, 1962). "The Transit Authority's first automated subway train went into passenger operation yesterday afternoon on the Times Square-Grand Central shuttle route."
