🚌 #SurfaceSunday: This 1997 @MTA.info #NYTMCollection training video was used to teach bus operators about #MetroCard transfers. MetroCard eliminated the need for paper transfers between buses and added the capability of free transfers between buses and subways. Do you remember paper transfers?

After a week, the shelter director tried to send me to another shelter with a 1-trip #MetroCard, but that shelter didn't know about me and didn't have a bed for me. (She was later promoted to a higher position in the #NYCDHS system.)

The Happy Birth and Timely Death of the MetroCard - Climate Law Blog The retirement of the MetroCard as the ball dropped on New Year’s Eve was bittersweet for me. In 1983, as a young lawyer, I took a year’s leave of absence from my law firm to serve as special counsel ...

🚇💳NYC’s iconic #MetroCard has officially been retired after 30+ years, making way for contactless tap-to-pay OMNY. It began as a tech leap over subway tokens and ended as a beloved piece of NYC transit history. Michael Gerrard shares his reflections: blogs.law.columbia.edu/climatechang...

The MetroCard is gone…but not forgotten (or cheap). 💸Just days after its final swipe, MetroCards are already being auctioned online for thousands to own a piece of NYC history. #metrocard

Hey #NewYorkers, the NYC transit fare is $3 now….

Same trains. Same delays. Same complaints.

How are we feeling about it? Is it justifiable or unjustifiable? (Please answer below, we’d love to hear from you.)

Closeup of a New York City Metrocard on a wooden bureau. The card’s design consists of a yellow field displaying the letters “MTA” in a brown circle over the word “Metrocard” in receding blue letters, with lighter yellow “shadows” at their feet; under that is a black magnetic strip with arrows and directions indicating how to use the card. The view is angled so that the edge of the card closest to camera is out of focus. Sunlight from the upper right corner of the photo illuminates the grained (and somewhat dusty) bureau surface and one side of a wooden box sitting beyond the card; the box throws part of the image into shadow.

For all you who think the #Metrocard entered service in 1994, you're you might be surprised that it's from factor first appeared on #PATCO in 1969

Here's to the engineers at #CubicCorp and their card's 56 years of service. 🫡

I wonder if @milesintransit.com is ready to purchase a #MetroCard after midnight. Or multiple cards seeing just how late the machines will dispense them.

One last swipe…
For decades, the MetroCard carried New York—across boroughs, generations, late nights, and big moments.
Farewell to a small piece of plastic that powered a big city. 🚇

I’ve now lived in #NYC long enough to watch the sunset of the token and the #Metrocard. Both were iconic, but I won’t miss the swipe any more than I missed having to purchase those 10-pack bags. One of the most amazing things about this city is the way it just says “out with the old” and moves on.

I still have subway tokens sitting in a drawer. That’s how old I am.
