Generally, the Metro system in DF is easy to use, fast and cheap. Some things I have noticed though:
- It can be uncomfortably hot inside the cars, as they are not air-conditioned.
- The length between stations seems quite long (compared to say Paris or New York)
- On a sociological note (and unlike Paris or New York), it seems that the system primarily serves a lower economic class. It is a bit surprising how different the mix of people looks underground vs above ground.
“It is a bit surprising how different the mix of people looks underground vs above ground.” …Like the Morlocks and the Eloi?
In a bit of confluence, I spent this same day taking the Metro all over Los Angeles! (Though this travels both above and below ground.)
