    Ah that sound. A New Yorker would always recognize that sound. Being alone, you and your thoughts, with fluorescent lights over you. The sudden metallic sound from the tracks, the random cough you hear when you know your alone. Your footsteps sound like fireworks on the 4th of July. Definitely a 2am kinda ride.

    I am Swedish and planning to go to New York. Your video showing 30 minutes of subway shows openly and honestly what it's actually like down there, during that time. Your video is very important to us outside of New York, to create a situational picture that makes us aware, but we should not be terrified. I already knew it would be bad in the subway, but here it's like actually experiencing it. Overall, New York is full of social problems, but also a city of great experiences, full of culture, history, entertainment and fun. I would probably not discourage people from going there, but be on your guard, and be aware of the risks. Summary. Go there and enjoy, but be aware of the risks.

    You gotta walk between cars, if the doors aren't locked. That feet funk and stale urine stink ain't no joke. That's one instance where this mask mandate can be a blessing.

      it got a lot better with Guilliani and his no-mercy policing approach, then the Bush and Obama years crime nationally was falling anyways so the MTA was very clean and safe then last 4-5 years it has slightly gotten worse, but NOWHERE near as bad as it was in the 70s and 80s. homeless people need help not to get kicked off but the subway cannot be a homeless shelter that just hurts ridership even more and makes the problem worse. the MTA is starting down this vicious cycle of crime scaring off ridership, and high ridership generally= lower crime.

    The reason why you're seeing homeless people living on subways is because the gang violence, other violent offenders, mentally ill, and poor conditions have made the homeless shelters run wild. They can't take the horrible conditions of those shelters and would rather have peace on Subways where people taking public transportation will most likely leave them alone and not be bothered.

Most stop around 12ish midnight & start again at 5am. Our trains are over crowded but most our stations look cleaner then yours and better maintained, from what I see there. Phone mugging is high on our London streets here. especially by the stations. No drinking, smoking, allowed on our trains. All our stations close their gates up for the night. So you would have to rely on lots of bus connections to get around in the night. Great video....

      Yeah in Ottawa it’s kinda the same but no we’re near as dangerous, just the late night bus rides with fluorescent lights kinda if look like this subway. But I never went to NYC so I may be wrong

    Don't know if my last post made it. I'm a retired NYC subway conductor(1983-2014). My childhood was of scary incandescent stations, dark tunnels, REALLY noisy trains. The change to flourescent lights was actually a big thing. W4? That's Covid empty. It usually rivals 42 or 34. Been there a few overnights.

I pray that God will form a hedge of protection around all his people that are less fortunate. In addition a lot of people that you see on the trains are suffering from mental illness. Some of the shelters are dangerous.
