I don't mean to start anything, but I think its ironic that they made MARTA's new cars black.

The new PATH railcars do indeed have TVs. No Washington Metro cars have TVs, though I believe the 7000 series cars currently on order will have that amenity. I'm not sure about the New York subway cars right now, but I'd guess some of the newer cars on some of the lines (L line?) would have TVs, though most of the railcars would not.

NYC has to have the biggest subway cars ever. Those things are taller as hell and they are extremely heavy. Their rough too, I remember the first time I rode one I though the train was gonna derail lol.
