Living in Manhattan, we used the bus whenever we could. (I went to school on the East Side, so the bus was the only reasonable option there in any case.)

I didn't do much subway riding until the summer of 1989(?), when my parents signed me up for an SAT prep class in the 50's and I discovered that the subway was much faster than the bus. I became very familiar with the layout of the Columbus Circle station at that time. My first railfan trip was on an A train deep into Brooklyn (I don't remember if I stayed on out to the Rockaways or I got off at Broadway-East New York and came back in on the J). When I got home, there were two cops in my apartment; my parents had apparently gotten a bit nervous about how long it was taking me to get home.
