Rented a car the first time I visited Boston. After that I learned to use the subway. It was fairly convenient if you could speak "Bostonese".
My exit was "Park". I had it all worked out and was waiting for it. Every time the subway train stopped the name of the stop was announced over the P.A. system on the train.
I was riding along,...the train stopped,...and somebody shouted "PACK!" over the P.A. system.
Before I realized what had been said I had missed my stop,...had to get off at the next one and walk back.

DC metro a good bit, sometimes connecting to the MARC commuter train. Used to be a pretty economical option, but it’s gotten very expensive.
Planes, trains, or automobiles, commuting into DC is an expensive, time-sucking PITA. Glad that’s over for me.
What fresh Hell is this?

NYC subway, commuting to work from the NY suburbs from 1987-2017, I hear it’s like a “Mad Max” film now. Just spent a long weekend in the Catskills, didn’t see anyone that wasn’t with me for 4 days. MUCH preferable. LIEberal Cities deserve what they get!

Only the Washington DC metro, and that was a long time ago. I think Klinton was President!
Carol and I took Ben to see the Smithsonian and the zoo.
We stayed at a hotel in Rockville MD, and across the street was a Metro Station.
At that time you could get an all day pass for 5 bucks.
A half hour ride would get you to DC and there were stations all over. IIRC, the longest walk to any destination was 5 blocks to the Zoo!
All the museums had stops within a couple blocks, and I didn’t have to deal with traffic, which was and is, always horrible in that area.
As much as love the Smithsonian Museums, I have no desire to enter that cesspool now, unless it’s to restore the rule of equal law by We The People.

Does that tram around/under the Atlanta airport count? That's the closest thing to a subway I've ever been on. It wasn't bad in the middle of the day. It saved a lot of walking, too.
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.

As ratsmacker said, if you've flown through Atlanta (and EVERYBODY has flown through Atlanta) you've almost certainly ridden on a subway. There's some kind of law that no connecting flight can ever be from the same concourse where you deplaned.
