New York

We were stuck at Central for an hour (55 mins) waiting for a train in the chaos on Sunday (stay off the tracks, d!ckheads, it really messed things up).

The irony was as we left the theatre, a taxi offered us a lift, right at the door. 

Next time, we will take it!

This is what happens when I'm bored.

    The taxi would have been much more comfortable.
    Take care, Happy Friday! Have a great weekend.

      I would argue about that - making me wait for an hour!!

    Oh wow, being stuck at Central for almost an hour because of track issues is the absolute worst way to end a fun day. That's such classic New York chaos, and the irony of missing that initial taxi is just painful.

    Your black and white photos are great, and what a good way to pass the time when boredom strikes.

    ...Lydia, I thought the trains ran somewhat on schedule.

    I just spent a week in NYC and never waited for more than five minutes for a subway train. It's a great way to get around town. Too bad you had this wait.

    Mind the gap, as they say in London

    I haven't see graffiti on trains before! Mind, we have no trains in Donegal - they closed the railways many years ago :(

    we were stuck for more than 6 hours on Paris-Brussels line (an hour away from Brussels) recently. After 5 hours I called my husband to come and pick us up. 15 minutes before he arrived, the train continued. But arrived to Brussels next morning. (distance Paris-Brussels is cca 300 km). And googling afterwards, I found out that happens often on that particular line.

    Good shot! Don't know what makes it so appealing, but it just is! Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme.
