I watched it earlier today. Nice video. FYI "SVBWAY" is the same as "SUBWAY" but in Latin.

When I was a new C/R back in 1966 I would often announce the station in a pseudo German accent “Der next shtop vill be Kveensplatzen."

I may have, but from the photos I have seen on this forum he doesn’t look familiar although we both probably looked quite a bit different back then. On the other hand I encountered Big Ed quit a bit since we were both vacation relief M/M and were competing with each other for lines that had steels, Qs and R-1/9s.

I'm glad they left the tiling alone instead of covering up in favor of some ugly modern design. The MTA is finally learning.
