b'Secret subway stations are the lonely places where trains and riders no longer go.\\xa0 Many of the \\u201cghost stations\\u201d were abandoned when the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) unified the Interboro Rapid Transit (IRT) and Brooklyn- Manhattan Transit (BMT) lines, which resulted in redundant stations all over the city.\\xa0 Some stations couldn\\u2019t be renovated to accommodate increased ridership (like lengthened platforms and 10-car trains).\\xa0 One of these stations, City Hall, is stunning, while another,\\xa0Myrtle\\xa0Ave, is a showplace for a clever art installation.\\xa0 However, most are grimy and deserted, still covered with the graffiti from the 1970\\u2019s and 1980\\u2019s.\\n\\nWhat the heck is a zoetrope?\\n\\nThe Myrtle Ave subway station experience video\\n\\nThe Bowery Boys graffiti podcast\\n\\nNYC Transit Museum\\n\\nWNYC Ghost Subway blog'
