metsfan Posted February 22, 2009 Share #1 Posted February 22, 2009 If it was midnight, and all the sudden the power went out, no backup lights, what do you think would be the scariest station to be in? - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amtrak7 Posted February 22, 2009 Share #5 Posted February 22, 2009 I would say 191 St. on the since you would have no way out of the deepest station unless you walked on the tracks to Dyckman St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amtrak7 Posted February 23, 2009 Share #7 Posted February 23, 2009 Elevators? - A If there's no power, there's no elevators. Plus there's that dark 1/2 mile tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted February 23, 2009 If there's no power, there's no elevators. Plus there's that dark 1/2 mile tunnel. Well i was asking if the only access was the elevators. I dunno bout any of you, but going in the tunnel in the pitch dark....:confused: - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Glen Posted February 23, 2009 Share #11 Posted February 23, 2009 145 street/St. Nick-a two level, rat infested station that smells like urine. The surrounding area isn't too nice either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted February 23, 2009 Share #12 Posted February 23, 2009 I would not be too scared, I always have a flashlight in my backpack. If anything, I think Chambers on the and would be a bad place with no lights since the south end of the station has a drop off of several feet into water/slime.

Guest Charles Posted February 23, 2009 Share #14 Posted February 23, 2009 155th Street . I've been to that station long enough to find my way around it, but narrow platforms, dimly lit passageways, blocked entrances, a stench, a deteriorating platform, and a less-than-safe neighborhood add up to be quite scary during a power outage! Plus, it's a relatively quiet station to begin with, so it's really creepy late at night when you can hear your own footsteps echoing off the wall!

Q43 Floral Park Posted February 23, 2009 Share #16 Posted February 23, 2009 For Jamaica Center to be one of the newer stations, its far too dark, gloomy and smelly during the daytime. 190 St , to me is worse than 191 because it's practically inside of the park, its deep and no one is around there once the sun sets.

Urbanfortitude Posted February 23, 2009 Share #17 Posted February 23, 2009 Yeah I'd have to say Chambers St on the as well. Otherwise Broad Channel on the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trainmaster5 Posted February 23, 2009 Share #18 Posted February 23, 2009 If I had to evacuate passengers it's 168-181-191 St stations on the line or the stations at Grand Central or Times Square because of the depth of those stops. If I'm off duty there is no scary station to me. I'm from "do or die". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

via White Plains Road Posted February 23, 2009 Share #22 Posted February 23, 2009 I would say 7th Avenue-53rd Street would scary to me if the lights went out in that station! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Beach Posted February 23, 2009 Share #23 Posted February 23, 2009 I would say 4th Ave on the cause its so high and if its pitch black outside with no lights,you can fall off the Culver Viaduct and thats one of the highest EL's!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Charles Posted February 23, 2009 Share #24 Posted February 23, 2009 If you think about it, if the lights went out at an extremely crowded station like Times Square, Penn Station, or Grand Central, it would be quite a scary scene! Not only is the station huge, there would be hundreds, maybe thousands! of people yelling, crying, screaming, or shouting. Quite a hectic scene there. Couple that with all the passageways, tracks, obstacles, workers trying to calm passengers, and stairs, and there's a really scary situation!

Those are all hectic stations with lights on, so I don't even want to imagine that scene pitch black - particularly Grand Central :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
