MTA Disco Inferno

This rusty heating unit can be found in the waiting area of the 18th Avenue N-train station. On particularly cold days, some morning commuters will wait here instead of on the platform for a few extra seconds of warmth.

This heating unit was turned on this past Wednesday. You know – the record-breaking, 90-degree Wednesday? Our fastest trip from March to 90-degrees in the history of recorded weather, that Wednesday?

A plain picture of a rusty heating unit isn’t doing the scene justice at all. This is what the area looked like when I switched my camera over to infrared mode.

    I guess it hasn’t got a working thermostat and nobody who works at the station knows how to turn it off.

    It looks older than I am, which makes it ancient.
