Baltimore,

-The subway line is just ghetto..

If I got it right NYC,
-the A/C train through Brooklyn and Queens (Far Rock)
-L train from Broadway Junction to Canarsie
-3 train in Brookyn to New Lots
-2, 4 and 5 train in the Bronx
-2 and 3 trains north of 96th street into Harlem
-J train from Broadway Junction to Parsons-Archer

I think I got them all.

Chicago,
Green line?

Philly,
-The Broad street line

Boston,
-the southern portion of the orange line

can anyone add to this?
I agree with you on Baltimore's subway. I wish they could eliminate a few stops.

The light rail isn't too bad though. Depends on the time of day I suppose.

We only have one line here and I'd say it sucks. The proposed ones are going to be pretty dumb as well.

According to wikipedia, the 4/5/6 (they all run together in Manhattan) line has a higher ridership than the entire D.C Metro. (1.3 million riders on the 4/5/6)
yup this happens on the 4/5/6, and q trains.

the 4/5/6 trains are just insane. no space to breathe.
