[@jamescapra5081]

Thanks. I use to take the 6th and 8th Avenue IND Express from Jamaica,,Queens to work in Manhattan and back everyday when I lived in New York.

Thanks for taking the time to film that! I found it helpful in preparing for our upcoming visit to NY.

It sounds like the class 465 in UK.

gingerbread man they got rid of brush. What's your favourite class. My top 3 are class 321 class 319 and 317.

[@user-do2rj4sf8j]

gingerbread man cool, 315 is also quite nice. I used to hate it but when I looked at the 345, the 315 seemed like first class luxury travel.

[@user-ps2kt7pu2p]

i mean, i'm a native NYer and i enjoy them sometimes.

[@cwillfrommd]

That's not rush hour looks like. Did you wake up late

[@mikopan6739]

Same thing with 4 & 5 downtown trains, even in the summer. All sweaty and just being squeezed into the middle of the train... Very typical on a morning. Haven't experienced the rush hour during the regular work year, though (Such as October or January).

Rush hour normally ends at 7PM.

[@ronaldrojas1581]

simon wang (4)(5) Is the busiest train in manhattan

[@civichoo6017]

This was probably at the end of rush hour. This subway station can get really busy during peak rush hour times.

[@user-ps2kt7pu2p]

Our subway is a bit more “spread out” so, our stations aren’t as packed as in some other countries. 491 stations. Not only that, taxi's, uber and our buses help transport people.

[@AxisX7]

Since you seem to film something as particular as this in terms of location & time in the NYC Subway, I suggest you try filming the uptown platform on the B/D line at 145th Street between 6:40 PM & 7:30 PM during PM Rush Hours. Worst time to attempt to go from the Central Park West corridor to the Grand Concourse corridor. Also, perfect proof that they really need to extend the duration of Bronx-bound B service during PM rush hours. As it stands, it ends too early...

[@fnj1017]

the sound of the motor is so cool hahaha

[@rolandpedraza1341]

Thank You I miss NYC :)

[@runkeral901]

This city is really for people who dont mind many other people around them.

[@nathanbush6781]

Run Keral I'm one of those people. I love crowds, actually. I hate being the only one in public places like Starbucks, Walgreens, Malls, etc. I really don't like being the only one on the bus...it feels pointless for some reason.

[@nathanbush6781]

Man I miss NYC! I've witnessed Penn Station on a Friday night! Yowza! Part of me completely loved it! I do wish Kmart would surrender their store at Penn so nice stores can go in there! City Target for the win!!!

[@mythrin]

Nathan Bush You're weird. An empty bus is so fucking nice and convenient.

[@sebaarias1404]

Nathan Bush I feel you!! Cities like New York, Paris or Tokyo definitely get me going!! I sometimes can get depressed when there is no one around

[@martinfamilybklyn803]

I LOVE THIS STATION!!!!!!!!!

[@imu4843]

i added this on my playlist dude!

[@aquicktake]

I just watched some footage of the same exact station filmed in 1986. What I can tell you from the visual differences is that America, New York in particular, is color void. Meaning that the color in our apparel has all but vanished. About 85-90% of those filmed are wearing black. It's highly prevalent in the city's culture. The '86 footage had the full color spectrum in it. People were wearing mostly every color EXCEPT BLACK.. Now, it's all you see. Sad that we are either trying to be nondescript or we have generally just lost our individual identities?!?

[@claudiahansen4938]

You're right! Also, cars of yesteryear had colors, green, yellow, orange, blue, red. Now only white, black, grey, beige and some reds or blues. We are being washed out of the pleasure to enjoy vivid colors.

[@BansheeResearch]

"please step aside and let customers off" do they really gotta remind people that people getting off have the right of way?

[@nutfield0013]

They mean you should let passengers off the train first before you get on the train.

[@BansheeResearch]

i know what they mean but it's a shame they have to

This is more like happy hour for tokyo metro 😅

The “rush hour” is so much better than here in Jakarta. 😂

[@wunderbar4870]

The reason why your one is worse is because you have no public transportation and you just have to drive everywhere!

[@Kanal7Indonesia]

Lord Revan We do have many public transportations, it’s just the population is too high

[@wunderbar4870]

Oh that explains it

[@insertnamehere0247]

I’m so confused, as a Brit our trains are simple we have the train name ( Northern Line , Victoria Line etc ) and it stops at every station until the last stop unless there’s branches and each have their own colour. Can someone pleas explain how ny subway works like what’s the point of the numbers and letters?

[@insertnamehere0247]

Also why do you not have names for some stations. In London we have names of every station but in ny you have it say “ 42nd Street “

[@insertnamehere0247]

@Siuz yeah why do you not have names tor the station it’s just numbers

[@insertnamehere0247]

@Siuz yeah that’s what I’m saying.. why do they name it after numbers rather than give it the name like we do in the UK

[@metrofilmer8894]

I can explain. There are 10 different colors used. The color of a route tells you which main line in Manhattan it belongs to. They are the following: Red(1)(2)(3)-Broadway-7th Avenue Green(4)(5)(6)-Lexington Avenue Purple(7)-Flushing Line-42nd Street Blue(A)(C)(E)-8th Avenue Orange(B)(D)(F)(M)-6th Avenue Lime Green(G)-Crosstown Brown(J)(Z)-Nassau Street Silver(L)-Canarsie Line-14th Street Yellow(N)(Q)(R)(W)-Broadway Grey(S)-Shuttle Lines Each of the lines that have a certain color run on the corresponding line. For example the 4 is green so it runs on Lexington Avenue. The 5 is also Green so it also runs on Lexington. The 3 however is Red so instead of running on Lexington, it runs on 7th Avenue.

[@metrofilmer8894]

The idea is one line covers a certain 1 or 2 branches for the main line and another covers another 1 or 2 branches. Along with that, New York used a 4 track model to improve efficiency. If a line is local, it will usually run on the outside tracks an stop at every station. If it’s express, it will run usually in the middle track(s) and will only stop at the main stations on the route and skip the smaller ones, which improves efficiency and capacity on the line

[@bruh-qq1sx]

It took em' two decades, but they finally removed all the hideous graffiti scribbling from those subway cars inside and out.

[@brando2066]

JOKERS WILD they didnt remove them they just got new cars

[@D_Marrenalv]

Not only new cars (we got new cars in the 70s & 80s too and it never stopped the graffiti rats from defacing those new cars), but today's coating is anti-graffiti, plus they're protecting the train yards much better as well. Offering stiffer fines and jail time doesn't hurt either.

Es gibt sogar in der New Yorker U-Bahn freies WLAN 07:05 ?! Deutschland muss in der Hinsicht echt besser werden, und wie immer schönes Video. Machst du das eigentlich mit Stativ?

[@Luftschlange]

I hope you don't mind an English reply. Yes, some of the stations in Manhattan and Queens have free WiFi (and also cell phone service). I think in Germany it's more difficult to provide free WiFi service because of legal reasons (the provider is made responsible for illegal activities of the users). I don't use a tripod, but when I film with my DSLR camera, I prefer to use a monopod with a fluid video head (when permitting). This allows for the smooth panning you can for example see in the 125th street video. However, I shot this film solely on an iPhone 6+, which has really great in-lens image stabilization, so you would just need some calm hands. :-)
