    make better agi prop, the US has the most gorgeous metro system in the world. Facts dont care about your feelings. (If you dont like brutalist architecture you probably wont like it and I’m sorry)

        In case anyone is wondering, that’s Komsomolskaya station, built in 1952. Later stations tended to not be so opulent.

          Funny you’d say that, because even though the first plans for it date back to the Russian Empire, it was the communists under Stalin who actually built it.

      Yeah. DC has some very pretty metro stations. NYC has SO MANY stops in Manhattan it was silly when visiting.

      I distinctly remember having to stop and admire the station the first time I went through there.

      This metro system doesn’t have enough parallel track to allow for night time operation or maintenance.
