I made this recording riding on the NYC subway system. You can hear general ambiance, chatter, announcements, and train sounds. This recording was made on the C line heading south from 42nd Street to 23rd Street on the afternoon of 25 March 2008 with a Zoom H4. Light post-production work done in Peak.
