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.

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.

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.
