I agree that I am totally freaked out with
Moscow Metro. It is just like being married...You can't do with or without it.
It is an elegantly designed, efficient and a cheap way to travel around but it
is also dirty, smelling and overcrowded.
The scenes that I am used to seeing every morning is a herd of people crammed in
a train and not all of them are so polite; but hey! I am not in Switzerland or
Norway...it is Russia. I think I am sometimes wrong about critisizing them; they
also want to get out of the stinking trains as much as I do...
This may have got the interest of the Metro Advertising Agency (if any) and they made
some posters with gorgeous models dressed as Metro workers.
"SMILE COMRADES! You are riding the most
efficient transport system in the Warshaw Pact"
Please use the correct escalator: use an
up-escalator when going upstairs to the exit."
...and here is an ordinary moscow metro worker:
Working 24h a day to keep the system cleaner,
but better don't forget to wash your hands!
A passenger - I don't think the metro is as dirty as you
claim. Granted I wouldn't eat off the floor. But it's not the metro that's dirty
and stinky. It's the passengers!
