Yesterday I showed you the first floor of the NY Transit Museum.
(Which, you may remember, is located in an old Subway station in Brooklyn.)
And while the first level of the museum is pretty amazing, the second level blew my mind.
You see, the second level is a subway platform full of antique and vintage subway cars.
It's incredible!
The subway cars are lined up, end-to-end, and museum guests can walk through each car...
Guests can try the seats and grab the hanger-straps...
Or check out the vintage (and "period" to each car) advertisements.
In addition to looking cool, some of the cars were pretty noteworthy. This one, for example, was the first subway in NYC to receive air conditioning... and it broke 2 weeks into service!
So interesting, right?
From beautiful, antique cars with a warm glow of light...
To blue, more industrial designs...
There were so many awesome cars to explore!
In case you haven't guessed yet, the moral of this story is: visit the NY Transit Museum the next time you're in town... you won't regret it!
Thanks for stopping by- I hope you have a great day!
