40-Subway-02

Unknown station in the Russian subway system...obviously very well-used by local citizens. Many of the stations are extravagantly beautiful, some of which I wanted to see, but this is not one of them. The following is from the Wikipedia article on the Moscow Metro system:

In total, the Moscow Metro has 278.8 km of route length, 12 lines and 172 stations; on a normal weekday it carries 8.2 million passengers. Passenger traffic is considerably lower on weekends bringing the average daily passenger traffic during the year to 7.1 million passengers per day. The Moscow Metro is a state-owned enterprise.
