By annual ridership, the New York City Subway is the busiest rapid transit system in both the Western Hemisphere and the Western world, as well as the eleventh-busiest rapid transit rail system in the world.[18] The subway carried 1,793,073,000 riders in 2022.[6]: 2 [note 5] On October 29, 2015, more than 6.2 million people rode the subway system, establishing the highest single-day ridership since ridership was regularly monitored in 1985.[20]
The system is also one of the world's longest. Overall, the system contains 248 miles (399 km) of routes,[10] translating into 665 miles (1,070 km) of revenue track[10] and a total of 850 miles (1,370 km) including non-revenue trackage.[11] Of the system's 28 routes or "services" (which usually share track or "lines" with other services), 25 pass through Manhattan, the exceptions being the G train, the Franklin Avenue Shuttle, and the Rockaway Park Shuttle.
The NYC system was built a century ago and operates at an astonishing level considering its for one city and is so relatively inexpensive.
And this appears to be a shot of a closed station that appears to be lit by flashlight - my guess is someone urbexing an abandoned station. There are quite a few stations in NYC that have been closed in the past century and aren't well maintained. Some are still passed by active trains even though there's no longer a stop there.
Agreed. We are lucky to have that. Also I'm pretty sure that the photos were chosen to show off the worse of the US subway system in NYC. I remember riding it once and thought it was pretty clean.
I guarantee that someone could do the same for the other subway systems if they should choose too.
Well, they've definitely been created by a neural network.
My belief is that it's the animal that underpins the conscious mind. The same animal we start out as at birth, but grow beyond (some more than others). Dreams are it's way of interpreting the sea of sensory input we absorb, but being an animal - a ball of instinct wrapped around a pattern matching algorithm - it can't read, or count, it doesn't really understand any of it at all, it just recognises how things are usually related (not entirely unlike the AI image generators) on an instinctual level. Occasionally, on waking, the conscious mind will catch a glimpse of what's happening and try to contextualise it, applying more complex, learned thought processes to fill in the blanks and explain the nonsense, but dreams rarely make sense in their raw form.
