Feels weird years later passing through these stations 🚉
If the flooded stairs lead to the platform, I can only imagine swimming down there.
wow..To heck with the trains, if this sort of thing keeps happening, the MTA's gonna have to invest in Gondolas! But joking aside, I hope this can be fixed soon, you never realize how much you need those trains until something like this happens.
Still incredibly creepy to watch.
In case one doesn't comprehend, the hand rails you see at 2:17 are for the FIRST flight of stairs that lead down to the train platform. That room itself is HUNDREDS of feet long and about 20 feet high from the tracks to the ceiling. Tomb Raider. Straight up. So that's at least 40 feet of water depth before you have the ankle-deep water this camera person is wading through.
That's a lot of fricken water.
imagine going scuba diving in that station
Upside: doesn't smell like urine for once
Nah but in all seriousness.this is really sad.people reall doubted this storm.people out of work and cant go back because of the train damage.people cant go back home because planes arent going nowhere.people lost homes to fires,water damage.i think most people didnt think it would do this because its new york and just seems unusual but that next one that comes everyone gonna be ready a week ahead i bet.
If you had gone scuba diving in the station the water would have been cold, black, and muddy, and there would have been no visibility at all, even with a lamp. You would have had to navigate entirely by touch. Not exactly an afternoon reefing off the Cayman Islands!
This is stupid. They refused to install protective measures like platform screen doors, and look what happened now.
I wonder what happened to those that live UNDER the stations o.O
The rats that were probably in this station have probably drowned

Fun fact those mini-submarines they used exist and they are somewhat cheap when you consider that they are millitary vehicle`s(there exist a few civil versions to used in dolphin photograpy/filming movie`s underwater scenes) the suit that they use sometime cost more than the sub because of the life monitoring system some require
The last presidential debate mentioned Israel 31 times but they can't keep the NYC subways from flooding. Our priorities really suck.
The Old South Ferry Station Reopened!
MP.4 Channel Yes, we know.
And its closed
:(
Who is watching this in2019?
Me
Not me
That Whitehall Street is open now, right?
I agree with you, BUT, the last debate was planned to be about foreign policy. As a former New Yorker (lived there 16 years) who was there during The storm of '91, I know New Yorkers are the best, & come together to help each other. Giuliani's boastful "New York: Capital of the World" was "mostly" correct. (As much as I disliked the man.)I'm concerned what happens in the financial markets come Wed. Will definitely have impact not just 4 NY, but the rest of US, and the world's economy as well.
Every transit system in the greater NY area is like this. NJT, LIRR, Metro North, and Path are all in the same jam. Track is all messed up everything is just messed up.
The entire station platforms were flooded. You can literally go scuba diving on the number 1 train platforms. That is not "nothing". This means the entire tunnel for the 1 train are flooded downtown.
2:43 Frankenweenie meets FRAKENSTORM !!!
Something tells me that I better get used to my city being underwater.
The more deeper they go the more I expect to find a witch down there or something else...
Wow! That is a lot of water. Any idea how many millions of gallons? Are there pump that usually keep up with normal rain fall? What a mess!
What bothers me the most is that it's a 1080p video running at 24FPS :(. That's the real tragedy.
wow, this is serious
1. London Underground Jubilee Line extension
2. Paris Metro Line 14 (1999)
3. Tokyo Metro Namboku Line
That's about it, I agree with the fact that it actually makes it a little worse.
Don't know how they will get rid of all that mold.
They probably don't exist because they all have seams between the panes between the doors, but they are supposed to wrap around the entire track to be waterproof
600 feet long.
And then there's the tunnel. A string of water 5-8 thousand feet long (two tracks) going 100 feet below sea level under a wide river. Times a dozen tunnels.
There is alot of work to be done where should i apply????
10 year's later and it feel like yesterday this happend in this sudway station.
this is an Astoria-Ditmars bound local train, stand clear of the doors please, oh i miss NYC
awwww....and they just got this station to look all nice and fancy too...and think of all the other remodified stations as well... :[
the cameraman leans right by about 20 degrees like he's got a short right leg or something
What the hell do you mean? Incase you didn't know the new South Ferry station was not built to be waterproof, which is why you see that disgusting grime on the walls. I don't see any stupidity in my post.
Is it going to re-opened soon?
The new station looked too cool to be flooded... :(
DAMN YOU SANDY!!!! DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the cleanest the subway has ever been
RIP Subway Kid.
You'll know what I'm talking about.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RATS? PLEASE TELL ME THEY ARE OK.
I take that station to work .... needless to say I am stuck.
subways flooded with approx 1 billion gallons of water
No, because it has platform screen doors...
Wow.
this is gonna be fun to clean up.
that looks like a film set
Not being sarcastic: What visual design would you rather have?
thats called free cleanup by nature
I wonder how long it took to pump all of the water out of the new south ferry station?
Wow
That is exactly why London Underground > NYC subway.
they are great swimmers, some can even swim up toilets.
Where are*
hey... when will they run a subway to staten island ...??
Why was the old South Ferry so curved
I wish there was a raw video on how the water actaully going into the tunnel
Dan g Not sure if it was open to public yet, but it has security cameras. It might have caught some action.
Its gonna take ages to clean this up..
When will MTA fix the station?
They already fixed it
this is what this will look like permanently in the years to come.
Ohhhh Sandbags....
I heard of people peeing in the subway, but come on this is too much.
that would be cool
Oh no
the perfect place for a new horror movie i guess
No zombies = no problems.
Only Sharks and Lawyers can swim in water that dirty!
thats my train -_-....my ONLY train
~Come visit Atlantis!
My god this Reminds of the Game F.E.A.R
Paranormal Activity 5 is on!
hopefully thatd teach mta a lesson, they shouldve been installed protective walls, etc. there is no other way but to take buses
Reminds me of a The Walking Dead show, traveling in those tunnels..If not that, then Metro 2033 or Fallout 3.
They could use submarines instead of trains then it would be a real subway
Looks fine to me
2:45 Frankenweenie.
and 5 tunnel roaming sharks were fed that day...
And ATO...
Half-Life 2 flashbacks..
That station got a severe-flood!
MP.4 Channel Yes, we see.
Of course it's right next to a ferry river
another nyct/mta 2 bway rip-off, why build this costly station beneath the water table for a shuttle service to the ferry, took 149th G/C rehab money away from bx to build ...........put terminal back to chambers street....very costly to re-invent wheel
looks like a gears of war map
Wrong, rats are great swimmers. Many probably got out and are on the streets now.
And ATO.
I can't tell you how many rats were displaced.
Think of all those sewers there all releasing the bacteria with the riseing water...oh shit a potential vombie environment ..
Since 1998.
On the bright side, this took care of the pan flute epidemic.
Rats move their babies to higher ground if they have time.
He's probably just another one of the blue collar employees, like the ones on camera. Dang.
28 days later shit
This is nothing...
Well, all those rats are definitely dead.
You wanna bet?
Zombie movie much?
Nature's way of ridding the stench of hobo pee
think of all the city rats........... eww.
you clearly dont know what youre talking about...
too bad they swim and trash floats
Who cares about the station, imagine trying to go into the subway tunnels O_O
It's like playing through that one level in COD3 with the Navy Seals. Wow...imagine actually being able to scuba dive down there...I would actually be dumb enough to volunteer for that lol
