167th Street is an elevated station on the IRT Jerome Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of 167th Street and River Avenue in the Bronx, it is served by NYCS|4 trains at all times. It has old-style signs painted over and covered up with new style signs, and features new fare control railings as a crossunder.
The station has 3 tracks with 2 side platforms. The middle track is generally not used in revenue service. The station was rehabilitated in 2004.
Polo Grounds Shuttle
From 1940 to 1958, 167th Street served as a "terminal" for the last remnant of the Ninth Avenue Elevated operating from 155th Street (Polo Grounds) to 167th Street. On reaching 167th Street, trains would switch to the center track, change direction,, and return to 155th Street on the downtown track. Service was eventually reduced to a single two-car train operating in both directions on the uptown track. In 1958, service was discontinued after the New York Giants left for San Francisco. From the southern end of the station, the ramps leading to the shuttle structure can still be seen.
