>>2021182Don't live there- live in PA- but I did take the F train when I was visiting my grandma in Brooklyn last December.
Was actually surprised with both how clean the cars were and how basically nobody talked or played music, despite what the fearmongering stories would have you believe. Very fast too. Basically less than 15 minutes from Midtown to Bergen St.
There was also what I'm gonna guess was some South American immigrants- a mother and child- silently walking through the cars hocking candy bars and water for like $1 a pop. They weren't bothering anybody so I guess it's fine.
The worst part was actually the stations, jesus christ, they looked like they went through fucking nuclear war. Rust stalactites and dirty cracked tiles and god knows what soot is covering half the beams there.
Functionally a good service, but those fucking stations and underground walkways need to be rebuilt from scratch. Actually embarrassing that's how metro stations look like in the richest city in this hemisphere.
