If given will provide a link {{{3}}} to be used in place of the {{NYCS time}}.

If given, would change the suffix of the link to "(New York City Subway <fourth parameter>)", to link to subway cars and other places as well


alt
If given, will provide an alternate value to link to, aside from [first parameter] (New York City Subway service)
bold
If given, will put boldface on the link text
service
If given, will append the text "train" or "service" after the service link.
