Conduit Avenue Subway

The Conduit Avenue Subway was an Imperial construction project that expanded the New York Subway System. The line ran from the Euclid Avenue Station on the IND Fulton Line to the Green Acres Mall. The MTA labeled the route as the K Train. It should be noted that the 76th Street Station is still considered part of the IND Fulton Street Line as it was the only station on the route that was completed before the Empire took over the project. Construction began in July 2003 under the command of Tevin Felth, service began two years later owing to the Empire's advanced construction methods and Felth's willingness to perform manual labor when needed.
== Forming a Conduit Express ==
The tracks of the Woodhaven Blvd. Subway merge into the tracks of the Conduit subway east of the Aqueduct Racetrack station. As a result the K is used as an express east of Aqueduct due to it coming from Manhattan and the Route 4 Subway. The MTA uses the Y for local service between Aqueduct and Springfield Blvd.

== Current Status ==
This project is labeled as complete. However, the K extension into New Jersey is not complete and the Woodhaven Blvd Subway is not complete.
== Behind the scenes ==
This route is based upon an IND Subway extension along Pitkin Avenue. The extension was dropped in favor of the routing via the former BMT elevated. The actual extension would have ended near the Aqueduct Racetrack.
