HE NO. 7 SUBWAY LINE THROUGH QUEENS is known as the "International Express." Just one ride through the ethnic communities from Times Square to Flushing will show you why. Atlanta Braves pitcher John Rocker targeted the train and its passengers in a tirade against the city’s many immigrants. But the train is a symbol of the city’s rich cultural tapestry. On this Web site you can explore some of the ethnic communities for yourself. Make sure to check out all the interactive features, from slide shows to videos, to get the full experience.
