Forget the suit. Here's the proper gear you'll need tomorrow to survive #wmata rail. No joke.

My goodness the Metro trains are L O N G !!!!!!! Would hate to have to ride them everyday tho. Need my car, my music my ciggs !!

Question: The video I am watching is the L INfant (whatever!) station. I thought I am sure the older stations dont have that big a platform. When the trains come into smaller stations does half of the train just "be" in the tunnel?

And people have to walk through cars to exit? Sounds dumb I know, thankfully never lived where they were needed !!

Traveled and been in em ,( some years ago) somewhat fascinated as a kid, but in any city it was usually a thrill only one time in any city !!. Dark, dirty, smelly, scary people, loud, ride bumby, drivers seemed like they liked braking hard, stressful!!!

But on these videos the trains sound kinda cool like jets almost!! Actually really cool sounding!! And when you see them stop at the outdoor stations the cars are clean- again my memories were graffitti all over the trains filty etc !!

Each car is huge !!!
