The World's Fair Railroad was a branch of New York City's Independent Subway System, now the IND division of the New York City Subway, serving the 1939 New York World's Fair. It split from the IND Queens Boulevard Line at an existing flying junction east of Forest Hills–71st Avenue, ran through Jamaica Yard and then ran northeast and north through Flushing Meadows–Corona Park (roughly where the Van Wyck Expressway (I-678) is now) to the World's Fair Railroad station, a bit south of Horace Harding Boulevard (now the Long Island Expressway (I-495)). The World's Fair Railroad and station are the only IND line and station to have been closed and demolished.
