BTW, even though this is a multiple choice poll you don't have to vote for a bunch of different cities, if you only like one city then just vote for that city. I like to have options though .

No not the fact that it only has 1 vote, the fact that right now it's in 8th place... like I never thought it would lose to some of the places that are beating it right now.

Well they are at least generally clean, besides they are planning to replace them with new cars. I personally think BART is very expensive, and the monthly pass is just a joke, but probably that's why they are relatively well funded for maintance and changing cars, etc.

The Chicago CTA cars have my favorite automated announcement - "soliciting and gambling are prohibited on CTA vehicles".

Lmao, doesn't Chicago have the funny door closing sounds too? I believe they sound like doorbell chimes or something.

Just thought I would point out that Miami does not have a subway.
Might get a little wet if they did.

Well Miami doesn't have a subway, but the Metrorail still serves the same purpose as a subway it's just elevated.
