Brighton Local Posted April 4, 2008 Share #3 Posted April 4, 2008 Probably the Inwood-207 St Terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted April 4, 2008 Share #4 Posted April 4, 2008 Ah, yea, i all most never ride the , so i wouldn't know, sorry myvalk!! P.S. most of the underground stations are sweltering in summer, but it really depends on the station, some are worse than others, some aren't too bad at all, hence your question obviously, but in case no one else answers, i'm going to guess you'll get sweaty in a t-shirt & jeans there. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelham Bay Dave Posted April 4, 2008 Share #5 Posted April 4, 2008 I can't help but ask why you want to know so much at 207 Street term? I won't answer this question because its a reg flag on security concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't answer this question because its a reg flag on security concerns. Only other reason i know, would be if the person got a job nearby or moved nearby, but yea i agree. - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myvalk Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted April 5, 2008 I can't help but ask why you want to know so much at 207 Street term? I won't answer this question because its a reg flag on security concerns. i just picked a new job, and i'm stationed at the A terminal. my old partner is there on just a few days of the week, but his idea of clean is'nt neccessarily (sp?) mine. i have heard that it's murder in the summer,with the heat and the added heat of the a/c condensors, but i needed a job up north. ...and good looking out on the security angle.

metsfan Posted April 5, 2008 Share #8 Posted April 5, 2008 i wish i was more familiar with each station. The only underground station i know of that isn't sweat-tastic in summer is the roosevelt island station, it's so deep and well ventilated that it's pretty much the same temperature all year round. Sorry i cant help more!!! - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'89 Liberty MCI Posted April 6, 2008 Share #10 Posted April 6, 2008 I know 207th Street well. Can't remember how hot it gets in the summer, but it does seem pretty clean most of the time. Tiles look good and aren't ripped out, haven't seen any rats or mice in all the times I've been there (which have been within last ten years, I've been on the subways frequently since I was 5), cleaning crews always down there, platform looks good, and I love the smell of the stuff they use to mop train floors. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myvalk Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share #11 Posted April 6, 2008 yeah that stuff is good and smelly, in a nice way. they just got a bulletin to stop using the strawberry flavored,...er.. scented stuff, 'cause passengers were complaining that it was too strong.

A bit off topic, but what is being done exactly to aleviate the heat in the worse stations? I saw a info release about the doing something, any new info on that?? - Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
