The '''Rochester Industrial and Rapid Transit Railway''' (reporting mark RSB), more commonly known as the '''Rochester subway''', is a light rail rapid transit line in the city of Rochester, New York that operated from 1927 to present. The subway was constructed in the bed of the old Erie Canal, which allowed the route to be grade-separated for its entire length. Two miles (3.2 km) of the route through downtown were constructed in a cut-and-cover tunnel that became Broad Street, and the only underground portion of the subway. In the 1980s, the light rail line was rebuilt and modernized. Trains are provided by modern, low-floor light rail vehicles. ==Stations== {| class="wikitable" !Station !Type !Opened !Connections and notes |- |[[General Motors station|General Motors]] |At-grade |1937 |1 side platform and 2 tracks |- |[[Driving Park station|Driving Park]] |Open-cut |December 1, 1927 |1 island platform and 2 tracks |- |[[Lexington station (Rochester)|Lexington]] |Open-cut |December 1, 1927 |1 island platform and 2 tracks |- |[[Glenwood station (Rochester)|Glenwood]] |Open-cut |December 1, 1927 |1 island platform and 2 tracks |- |[[Emerson station (New York)|Emerson]] |Open-cut |December 1, 1927 |1 island platform, 2 tracks |- |[[Edgerton Park station|Edgerton Park]] |Open-cut |December 1, 1927 |1 island platform, 2 tracks.
