New York has a second nickname,“ the city that never sleeps”, an insomnia metropolis in perpetual motion. Like the city, the subway never rests. It runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It's the fastest way to get around. Average speed on asphalt 10 kilometers per hour. Average speed on rails, 48 kilometers per hour.
紐約有著第二個綽號,那就是“不眠的城市”,這個好動的大都市也有著失眠的一面。像城市一樣,地鐵也從不休息。它一天24小時運行,一周7天。這是最便捷的交通方式。瀝青上的平均速度是每小時10公里。鐵軌上的平均速度是每小時48公里。
Conceived in the 19th century, it was the world's first subway with four track service, two local tracks, two express. No waiting. In a city chokes by congestion, the subway was a breakthrough.
成形于19th世紀,它是世界上第一個有四條線路的地鐵,兩條當地線路,兩條高速路。不需要等待。在擁擠的城市中,地鐵是一種突破,為人們帶來了便利。
From a single line tentacles spread across the city to become the most extensive subway system on earth.
從單一橫跨城市的線路成為地球上最廣泛覆蓋的地鐵系統。
