"Moscow subways are more a work of art then 'prolitariot transport.'"

The two are not in conflict. Just because something is beautiful deosn't mean it isn't used. As noted earlier in this thread the Moscom Metro runs very high frequencies. I haven't been to Moscow, but in St Petersburg - where the metro is a similar but smaller system - the frequencies were about 30-40 tph (every 1.5-2 minutes) and the trains were very crowded. As for proletarian - some of the heavily-used destination stations in the outer areas of the city were in areas that were clearly very depressing, poor and deprived.
