The IND World's Fair Line, officially the World's Fair Railroad, was a temporary branch of the Independent Subway System (IND) serving the 1939 New York World's Fair in Queens, New York City. It split from the IND Queens Boulevard Line at an existing flying junction east of Forest Hills–71st Avenue station, ran through the Jamaica Yard and then ran northeast and north through Flushing Meadows–Corona Park, roughly along the current path of the Van Wyck Expressway. The line continued along a wooden trestle to the World's Fair Railroad Station, located slightly south of Horace Harding Boulevard (now the Long Island Expressway). The World's Fair station, the only one on the line, consisted of two tracks and three platforms.

rdfs:comment	La linea IND World's Fair, ufficialmente World's Fair Railroad, era una linea dell'Independent Subway System realizzata per servire il sito dell'Expo 1939 a Flushing Meadows Park, nel Queens. La linea partiva come una diramazione dalla linea IND Queens Boulevard, attraversava il deposito Jamaica Yard ed arrivava presso il sito espositivo. Venne chiusa e demolita nel 1940, dopo la fine dell'esposizione; si tratta tuttora dell'unica linea chiusa e demolita dell'Independent Subway System. I suoi resti sono ancora visibili all'interno del deposito Jamaica Yard.

IND World’s Fair Line, официально World's Fair Railroad — Железная дорога Всемирной выставки) — линия Нью-Йоркского метрополитена в боро Куинс, построенная к Всемирной выставке 1939 года, состоявшая из одной станции и просуществовавшая полтора года. Является единственной линией (а её станция — единственной станцией), относившейся к сети Ай-эн-ди и не сохранившейся до наших дней. Линию обслуживали два маршрута поездов, один из них шёл через линию Кросстаун к станции Смит-стрит — Девятая улица, а другой — через линию Восьмой авеню к станции Хадсон-терминал. (ru)
