215 Street

This isn’t the best-looking subway station.  Looks like it needs a paint job.

 

.. but it’s normally used by a lot of people.

 

At the time I took this photo, it was pretty quiet on the platform.  This lady was the only one waiting for the train.

 

Above-ground subway stations are especially nice during the summer, because normally the underground ones are very very hot.

 

Ahh!  The lady’s train arrives.

 

So long!

 



Subway Station

Well, some subway stations are actually located above-ground, like this one.

No Service

There’s nothing more annoying than finding that the train won’t stop at the station that you plan on using.  This week, it happened to me at least three times.   I had to get out of the station and take a crowded bus the rest of the way to my destination or take another train past my desired stop and then get on another train to bring me back.  So annoying.  Despite the convenience, the city keeps moving.  ;-)

Ed. Note:  Kudos to those who noticed the billboard sign, Royal Pains, in the background (You guys don’t miss a thing.).  It accurately describes a commuter’s feelings when the subway isn’t running 100%.  I did notice it but didn’t have a chance to comment on it.  This post should be entitled, Royal Pains.   Very appropriate.  ;-)



Motion Thursday: Subway ride

Taking people places.  This subway runs above ground for a few blocks before going underground again.

 

The train came from this station pictured here on 125th Street in Harlem.

 

MOTION THURSDAY.   Check it out and post your own photo of a subject in motion.  Join in on the fun!

After the Game

Subway station near the New York Yankees stadium.

 

 

After a Yankee game, folks are heading home.

 

 

Someone put a Yankee shirt rain poncho over a pole on the sidewalk.    I think it’s safe to say the person is a Yankee fan.

 

Life has been getting in the way of my blogging fun.  So, I’m going to try things differently.  Instead of blogging everyday, I’ll blog once or twice a week.  I’ll try to continue visiting other blogs.  Let’s see how that works.  Have a good Monday, everyone.

 

Happy Blogging!
