MetroCard sales will end on December 31st. Through the end of the year, the #NYTransitMuseum will be sharing archival objects, videos, and images from 32 years of MetroCard. Find a new post each Wednesday.
#HappyHalloween! 👻 #DidYouKnow the #NYTransitMuseum has photographs of ghosts in our collection?! These mysterious images of Manhattan from the 1940s and 1960s capture #NYC hauntings… or they could just be the result of long or double exposures. What do you think?
