Now that's creative advertising...what show was that for again? :wink:

It could be worse, it could be complete with fake patrons of the "saloon"

Shrink-wrapped insides?

Yes, it keeps the train fresh - for your protection. :-) :wink: :-D

John, I hate to break it to you, but no subway cars ever looked like this on the inside. These shrink wraps were not done to replicate an old subway car, they were done to replicate an Old West saloon.
