text: Transportation Within the Lake Area, the American Machine and Foundry Company (AMF) constructed a monorail with two  loops. The line was a suspended monorail with seven 80-passenger trains, each two cars long. Another transport attraction at the fair was the Swiss Sky Ride, a ski lift or aerial gondola that was sponsored by the Swiss government. During the 1964 season, visitors could rent one of 147 Greyhound Escorters, driven by chauffeurs. In addition, 61 Glide-a-Ride trolleys served the fairground during both seasons.
  The fairground was accessed by numerous highways on Long Island, which had been upgraded to provide access to the fair. An expanded World's Fair Marina provided access via Flushing Bay. There was a short-lived ferry service to Manhattan, as well as other ferry routes to various ports in New York and New Jersey. A helicopter shuttle ran to the Pan Am Building and Lower Manhattan heliports. Local buses, airport shuttle buses, the subway, and the LIRR all stopped near the fairground. The R33S and R36WF subway cars were constructed for the 7 route, which ran to the Willets Point station near the fair. Although a dedicated subway line had served the 1939 fair, no such route was built for 1964. A luxury bus service carried "distinguished guests" to and from the fair.  There were 20,000 parking spaces, and shuttle buses transported people from the parking lots to the main gate.
