#TheSubwayIs 120 years old today! On October 27, 1904, the first underground subway train traveled 9.1 miles through 28 stations, with more than 100,000 people paying 5 cents for a ride. In the decades since, we've made huge strides—we've built new lines throughout the city, introduced new subway cars, brought art and music to stations, and so much more. One thing that hasn't changed: Our commitment to serving the people of New York with fast, reliable, and accessible subway service.
