Forest Av

What to say about Forest Av? Like a lot of people who rely on the subway for work, this station was instrumental in our decision to move to Ridgewood.nnAs far as subway stations go it is a good one. Small, simple layout and with ticket machines that always seem to be working. From the above ground platform you get a good view of Queens (and Brooklyn). It is beautiful on a clear morning.nnGoing into Manhattan in the morning is a crowded affair due to the amount of people who get on the train at the stop before (Fresh Pond).nnPro Tip: If going to the city, take the train in the opposite direction and get off at fresh pond and take from there. Although it is only one stop, it will help you get a seat during rush hour.nnOverall, good station. The M line is one of the best trains in NYC.

Probably one of my favorite stations. It is clean, the machines work and honestly, it is rarely very crowded. I used to catch the M at Myrtle/Wyckoff and have taken it at Seneca as well but I must say that at Forest, I was always able to get a seat on the train while at the other two stations, I wasn’t always able to. If you have a chance to live near this station, take it. I noticed other reviews state that there is no trash can, however, there is. It is right inside the doors of the station, before you swipe through and get up to the platform. So be sure to throw away your trash before swiping through!

Clean station.

The machines are always working, the staff is lovely. It's clean. There is shelter from the rain, and the view is beautiful.

Such poor service and the staff treat people with such little respect. They deserve to be fired due to their lack of normal humanly verbal communication. If the disrespect continues, they have a reason to get assaulted...
