Join me, as we'll take a look at the history of the public transport system of the Big Apple, and the plans for its future development.

Fantastic video!
Thank you!
It hurts to see the streetcars breaking down.
Ah, this guy! Informative, with good pictures, oveall great video
thanks so much🙏🙏
informative, intelligible, obligatory shot at Elon, gave me mad deja vu, said omnibus: check checkity-check check, check
Thank you! of course, the jab at Elon had to be done, haha
is it supposed to be silent at 8:20? just the video no sound, eh?@@TheTramly
Oh, it seems like I have made an editing mistake, the video originally had sound...
8:01 That's one hell of a striking image.
Coupled with the facts in your narration over it, it maketh not a happy tale.
Thinking about it too, it's a photo the like of which we are almost guaranteed never to see again. Reason being that it's the epitome of the era's confidence in human ingenuity. Just chuck em away, we've got plenty more.
At the very least in today's err climate, they would first be offered to a metro system in the developing world suffering from a lack of investment. As decommissioned USN and RN capital ships are to other nation's navys.
If there are no takers, they'd be repurposed into wacky work spaces (as in the East end of London) with the main body of them having their metals expensively recycled into something essential for today's New Yorker such as the on trend metallic trousers, no less!
Yeah, it's a massive shame they just got tossed away like that..
