Love the shine of the train, the grittiness of the scene, the elevation of the train that adds so much interest, and what can I say about the subject matter itself?

They didn't used to have them. When I was three years old, my grandmother swung me onto the train, but then the door closed on her ankle. She was still outside the train and she fell into the gap. Fortunately, someone saw this before the train started to move and pulled the red cord, and someone else hauled her out of the hole. She fractured her ankle. A week later, someone else was more seriously injured--which is what prompted the City to install the platforms.BobbieCoughlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17752427759518991095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036328697998066922.post-28126782790734149342011-06-04T17:58:42.922-07:002011-06-04T17:58:42.922-07:00Great shot.

I used to work at the very bottom of Manhattan, so I am very familiar with the South Ferry end of the 1 train (and that bizarre station), but have never taken it that far north into the Bronx.Giselehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106592096610577264noreply@blogger.com
