When I was a kid, there wasnt any fear only adventure. Subways were for dreaming. And I would stand at the

75、 window of the front car and dream through the great network of tunnels, watching the red and green lights go by. A subway is like a secret, a childs game.

Subways have been made a great deal safer since then. I think what people like most about the subway, apart from basic transportation, still comes from the magic feeling of rushing around fast in a train underground.
