The MTA is scheduled to vote on two separate pricing plans for Metrocards on Thursday — though structurally different, both plans would result in the same increase for monthly cards. Board members will vote after hearing from the public at the meeting that will begin at 10 AM. The difference between the two plans will […]
It’s every New Yorker’s fear that the city’s legion of rats will one day unite, revolt, and take over the city. The mangy beasts creep in alleyways, garbage cans, and subway tracks, waiting silently for their day of reckoning to arrive. In the shadows, they train. And now we have proof. Thank you to Redditor […]
Days after a Redditor found cameras hidden in New York’s Herald Square subway station, the New York Post investigated and confirmed that there are “at least six hidden cameras” embedded among the “ubiquitous domed video-surveillance cameras.” Though one source in the MTA described the cameras as “antiquated,” as they date back to the 1990s, the […]
This man just doesn’t care if anyone’s watching him pull out what seems to be cocaine and do a few bumps. Reportedly riding an uptown Seventh Avenue train, it would be easy to assume he was jonesin’ for a fix — but he seems perfectly calm, deliberately operating his bill and straw. […]
Spotted in Brooklyn: A little girl who wants to dance, and a bunch of strangers just as eager to join her. Frustrated by a Staten Island jury’s failure to indict an NYPD officer for the death of Eric Garner and filled with hope by the city’s mass protests, New Yorkers are feeling a lot of […]
Comedy team Glove and Boots have put together a comprehensive guide on how to avoid being an asshole on the subway. Using puppets they break it all down very simply for you, explaining to think of it as a big party in your friends studio apartment at 7am with 800 other people who all hate […]
“Man smacks the soul out of girl on the NY Subway,” was the title given to a video that was posted to YouTube on Saturday and showed a man slapping a woman after she took a swing at him, leading to a subway brawl. They both were arrested, along with two others, all of whom […]
The internet community always finds a way: Four people were arrested on Monday after video circulated on YouTube of a fight in which pretty much everyone was in the wrong. The video shows a woman talking shit to a man about his out-of-date style, the man talking shit back about something or whatever, the man […]
Basically, everybody on this F train sucks. From the rudely taunting lady to the instigating pack of women to the face-slapping man and the squealing halfwit who filmed it all, no one wins. The NYPD is reportedly investigating the incident, but from here, it looks as if almost every person riding that subway car is […]
Traditionally, when a graffiti artist risks arrest to paint a train in New York, he or she usually targets a subway car, but one enterprising writer decided to go against the grain by painting a Long Island Railroad train instead. Earlier today, I shot a photo of a LIRR commuter train near the Arch Street […]
