Photo Gallery: New York travel ban leaves city rail landmarks desolate

Seems odd they’d have to suspend the subway.

Oh and thanks for the gallery, beautiful! Thanks,

This is the ultimate example of the USA today===shut down the country because of a potential of a storm, instead of attempting to provide service needed to keep the country operating like all of us did when highways and air were crippled, rail while delayed put on all available efforts and kept the system fluid. New York has got what it has wrought with political
ly correct and CORUPT political scoundrels. HBF

What Paul Harrison said, …“gallery, beautiful, Thanks.”
Yes, Yes, Yes.
What Paul wondered about: most if not 90%, of the “subway” routes, lines are fed or terminate using ground level or elevated tracks and yards. The forecast was that they’d be covered with two feet of snow.
Subway cars don’t have snowplow pilots (ie. front ends.)
Those photos, actually I consider them, pictures as in “art”…, are instantly archival and historic: there are almost no, 'grant you i’m guessing, there are no pictures of those great spaces devoid of people…
Grand Central…Ain’t it Grand?
Penn Station…usually it looks like a highly over-populated bee hive…

I think Dr. Fine has it exactly right, whether it is weather issues or crime or just about anything else we are in terrible trouble in this country not about the issues themselves but about how we respond. What passes for leadership at the city-level or the national-level is so out of touch with reality that there is little hope for this city or country while we have such leadership in “high places.”
