Christmas decorations in a non-tourist area, three blocks from my former home.
Department of Highways facility across the street from my parents' home.
Empty train station at night. The trains run throughout the night, but passengers are not always present.
Critical Mass.
Playground reconstruction.
Free stuff left outside for anybody who may want it.
Weed grows on subway tracks that are seldom used.
Fire.

What is the difference between a tube station and a train station?
Sun Jul 26, 2009 5:32:34 pm
The 68th Street one is underground. The one with weeds is above ground.

We call them "subways" regardless of whether they are above or below ground. "Subway" is a shortened form of "subterranean railway", but most people don't know this.

The ground is very strong in Manhattan. That supports the tall buildings and enable underground trains to exist. Outside of Manhattan, there is a mix of above and below ground, often on the same train line.

This is very similar to the Coney Island train station. I don't think that I have a photo of it in my collection.

We don't have those in NYC.
Sun Jul 26, 2009 5:40:40 pm
Yes, I'll look for some.

I don't have them filed in the right way to easily find the interior of trains. I'll look more later. Here is one of the interior of the Museum train:
This is how trains were several decades ago. I don't know the exact time period.

The only round one that I know of is the Roosevelt Island train station. That one is much further below ground than most other stations.

The difference in the newer ones is the structures that people can hold onto.

I looked at it often when I was younger, but I only look at it when going to a new place now.

That is similar to the trains that I take when going to other cities. The ones that are for travel inside the city have less seating.
Sun Jul 26, 2009 5:57:39 pm
Understandable.
Sun Jul 26, 2009 5:58:56 pm
There is nothing wrong with that.

The cost is $2 per ride to any location. There are also "unlimited ride" options. $87 per month gives unlimited rides, but there is a minimum of 18 minutes between uses. Transfer to a bus is free.

I don't. I don't believe in orthodox western medicine.
