Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Just got back from a week in NY. Used this subway. The experience was great.
The NYC subway might be dirty however it’s much better than it was back in the 70’s and 80’s when it was at its lowest ebb.
Very true!
Those were my years riding the subways:
The French Connection/Taxi Driver Seventies
Absolutely agree, that was my childhood in NYC, it was a different subway system for sure.
I LOVE those old subway trains!
6:29 she was staring you down lol
You always go above and beyond to create informative public transportation videos to help your viewers! 🏆 Good to know about the contactless payment method for the fares, and taking the subway is much more economical compared to Uber/Lyft or taxi. 👍 Keep up the good work, and YOU ARE THE BEST! 😎 Thank you for sharing this video, AK! 🤗
Much appreciated! The NYC Subway is very easy to use, and it isn't so intimidating once you know how it works
I really love it!😊
Don't visit NYC since 2018. It's quite expensive to get a flight from Brazil to your city. Thank you for making these videos, cause you bring me back while walking on the streets like you do. I also remember the places I've been.
You're welcome, I really appreciate it!
As an person that lives in Kyiv, NYC Metro( for you guys Subway) its really dirty but alot bigger and more complicated then Kyiv Metro,
Im Planning on visiting NY One Day!
This is so helpful and convenient not only for tourists, but also for locals as well. It's so kind of you to share with us. I love Chinatown.😊❤ Now, I know an easy and precise way yo get there, so thank you so much.🤗💕💜🎶🎵
I like these a lot especially because these transportation videos are quite useful for the future visit in New York😎Thank you for sharing this informative and quite educational video A K🙂👍!!!
My pleasure, I know this will be helpful for people
This is a very interesting and informative video. Many thanks! I've never taken the subway in New York, but I used to take it all the time in Boston. Whenever you give the price of taking the subway, I feel positively ancient! I remember when the Boston subway was 15 cents and being quite shocked when it was raised to 20!
You're welcome! Wow, those prices are really outdated and I can't imagine a time when a train ride used to cost that much!
I used to ride on subways a lot Actionkid and it's enjoyable, chilling, and relaxing! Thanks for the share, keep up the excellent work, and you're excellent my NYC friend ActionKid!🤩🤗🥰☺😊😎
I used to love to walk it. What fun. I miss NYC.
No joke, this is good stuff!
Glad you liked it!
Something New, Different and Interesting. Great Job ActionKid, I'll keep tuning in. Thanks for helping people who are outside the City. 🙂
Very informative and interesting. Thank you for making this video @ActionKid!
Much appreciated, thank you for watching!
@@ActionKid no worries! I enjoy watching you content, very peaceful.
Yay I got to the New York City transit and didn’t have to pay thanks Action kid 🤣🔥😄
That's amazing
Hello and good night, everyone.
AK, thank you for this vlog, I do love your nyc vlogs the most. They are always very interesting and you always find a new idea to share with us.
You're welcome, glad you found this video interesting!
I was in NYC in November 2023 what a great city can'twait to go back JR Glasgow Scotland.
Actionkid knew the whole NYC subway system at 5 years old.
22:23 lol it feels like a jail it does actually look like one 😮
Great Video - I'm visiting New York next year and have limited mobility, so this confirms that I won't be using a subway :)
That's good to know! Even though some NYC subway stations have elevators, they're not always convenient.
Thank you. Because of your video, I got to kind of experience this when I would never be able to otherwise. I've always wondered what it would be like. I've never been on one and never will.
We're planning a trip to the city in a couple of weeks. Our subway skills are a little rusty. This is a great refresher. Thanks!
Perfect
Oh yeah the platform edge is so close Shesh
Wow thar train is moving super fast
The system is in need of upgrading. The car set you’re riding in is the oldest in the system r46 cars and the r68 used on the D line
Much better than London, no joke. I❤NYC
Long wait for your train. 🥱
Nice video, AK. A few comments: 1) Your smartphone (both Android & iOS) can be configured in the wallet to designate a particular payment method for transit; then the phone does not need to be unlocked in order to work at the turnstile 2) Discounts for seniors, students, & the disabled are still available through OMNY, but just like the Metrocard need to be prearranged in advanced with OMNY. 3)People who complain about the dirt, the rats, or the crime in the subway don't consider the context-- namely, that 4 million people are using the system EVERY DAY. Personally, I think they do a great job overall and it's the biggest bargain in mass transit.... and at a single price no matter how far you're traveling in it.
Re London: “I didn’t see any rats on the train, just MICE.” 4:38 👀 lmaooo
Hi AK, I am planning to visit NYC next year, could you advise the best low season as well as weather to visit? Thanks
The nitty gritty NYC is long gone
Awesome video AK!
To me, New York City transportation is the only reliable means of transportation in the world 😊 I moved out of NY years ago but have visited. I tell people buses or trains tag along one right after the other 😅
You're welcome! NYC's public transportation is really convenient and many people take it for granted.
I rode the subway when it was called the RR train: the “Double R”
You'll get a credit as my 2nd unit on location camera guy, one of 5, they mystery guy with the signature ring M heading back and forth between Times Square and else wearing his Microsoft POV shades in 2084 (Retro Post Pandemics future - bankrupt world). He'll pop up the stairs in my chromakey Times Square station exit with aerial 3 angle stage set. Awesome dude! if the movie ever get's released (unlikely) the CORPORATION will pick up your fee.
B, D,F & M trains Do no go through Times Square in addition to the 4, 5 & 6. Connection to A, C & E trains a bit of a walk. If you need to get to the 4, 5 & 6 trans catch the S (Shuttle) which leaves every few minutes for a short ride.
How safe do you typically feel on NYC subway? I will be visiting in a couple of weeks with a couple of friends
Don't believe all the doom and gloom that the news and social media keeps dishing out. 99% you'll be safe if you keep your wits about you.
Hi. As a Native New Yorker who lived there for 51 years, I can offer some tips that have served me well & hopefully will ease your concerns:
-I always feel safe 6 am to 8 pm & in busy areas (like Midtown Manhattan & Downtown Brooklyn).
-Space is a huge deal for many New Yorkers. Be courteous in sharing space on crowded trains. Keep bags/personal items as close to you as possible.
-Use common sense; be aware of your surroundings. In the rare event you get bad vibes about a situation, stay calm/relaxed, but move (subtlely) away as far as possible. Or change subway cars if necessary.
-As an unwritten rule, subway riders are quiet, keep to themselves & avoid eye contact. But if you need to ask someone a question, most come out of their shell, are friendly, and enjoy showing off their knowledge of the city 😂 (don't be alarmed if they are initially startled 😂).
Have a great trip!
@@ceddycedchin Wow thank you for these tips! I am nervous but very excited!
@@Cain-x Yes I am hopeful we will be fine and have a lot of fun!
💥💥I seen Andrew Dice Clay video of you Mr action kid.💥💥
Did you find the Tube in London more user friendly than the NYC Subway?
Is there an app that gives directions for each station? I’m use to Washington DC metro and their smart trip app.
Yes, Transit
I really want to visit NYC although I'm not into crowded places. I'll be sure to watch your informative videos though if I do. N Trust me if I bump into you I will ensure I make an appearance on your channel 😂
I'm from Manchester UK x
Good to know you're prepared
Dubai sub way train was very clean
No more subway tokens! (I still have a collection of old subway tokens of yore.)
I’m assuming when you say just tap your phone you must have the Omni app open first
I use to want to live in New York so bad now I wouldn't dare just to much .
I'm trying to get an overall picture of how the underground works , the London underground goes by line name and then you just need to know I u want to go N S E OR W and where to change for lines crossing. Can u sum up this for the NY subway thanks
Very cool!!
I notice compared with the London tube they come into the platform so fast don't they
R46 75 footer is soon to be gone but not forgotten.
I’ve overslept as well on TfL, ended up in a siding . JH
You sat on the r46 n train just to tell you
Those trains look so old compared to London.
The R46 class was built from 1975 til 1978. It is currently the oldest class of subway trains in NYC. I remembered when they were new.
The subway didn't look very dirty on video
Vladimir Putin? 20:05
There was one time these subways were the most dangerous place on god's green Earth.
Someone ought to derat the entire NYC subway system, so that it’s more sanitary for
locals and tourists alike! A huge improvement is needed.
This subway is one of the oldest in the world and were build long time ago way ahead from other country esp in Asia and europe.... no wonder its looks old style... all the world follow and copy this subway and apply it to the their city and upgrade the style and system... but compare to London underground i will like London underground more interm of clean and style....
London.
And opened in 1863! Some forty years before New York.
London underground is much older. It's also cleaner and safer. Americans wish they had the underground!
@@davidwatkins8478 fr, i wish we had the london underground. ive visited london a few times, it was so much nicer...we need an upgrade
@@davidwatkins8478 the nyc subway is operating 24/7 all year long, while the London underground closes from midnight to 5am every night unfair comparison, let the underground operate 24/7 and let's see how clean it stays, brits wish they have a lot of American things too that's why they're on every comment section on RUclips comparing themselves 😂
Thanks Neilkus!
Great ❤
Where are the musicians?
They paved Times sq. what a travesty
Have you seen the red glowing tree, close to Hudson Yards?
Why don't you do one in Philadelphia
I bet covid is circulating all over that train nobody has on a mask 😷
Such a scary and dull place 😶
LOVE THIS EARLY MORNING WALK ON CANAL
The Subway Gets The ActionKid To His Destination But It's Not A Smooth Ride ! 🚇 .. He advises sitting if at all possible as standing is fraught with peril. 🐼
Especially if it is an express train.
