Man, I can't wait to take the shuttle train. The only thing is that during the 90 sec ride it gets so crowded the only thing you can see is the ceiling.

It doesn't look like wrapping, it looks like real wood. That is great advertising. Much more enjoyable than the standard billboards and posters. I'd like to see future films do this also. In addition to subways, how about bathrooms also?

i think it's cool and looks amazing...but i also think it's wrong, well...somewhat. i agree with the intrusion on privacy thing. although since a subway isn't a very private place, i don't find it to be disturbing...but washrooms...that's a different story.

Damn. I wish they would do that for the Skytrain here.

They are planning on it, as far as I know.

I think.

I'll look for the link I saw.

Either I'll find the link, or Im wrong, but I remember reading it, and hearing it on the radio Yesterday.

Rode it today. Quite odd. Felt like was going on a jungle tram ride or something with the fake wooden seats.

other than that was it a good experience? or just "meh"?

Kinda meh. The ads actually didn't seem to fit with the old look of the car. Actually that's just what it seemed like: an old, run down subway car. Maybe the World of the Worlds one will be a better experience.
