Riding the Washington Metro – Ride and Station Impressions
The player loads from YouTube only when you press play.
Our month-long house-sit in DC was based in Brookland, which meant regular trips into the city on the Metro, and we came away genuinely impressed by the system. Much of it runs above ground outside the city center, giving riders a real look at the neighborhoods passing by rather than just tunnel walls. We’ve given up owning a car since 2008, so a good public transit system is always something we notice and appreciate.
