If Only All Subway Sandwich Shops Were Actual Subway Stations – Emily Badger – The Atlantic Cities

There are upwards of 140 Subway sandwich shops in the Baltimore metropolitan region, which is a whole lot more than there are actual subway transit stops (which, as you may recall from that early Subway wallpaper, provided the original inspiration for the franchise). Baltimore today has just one partially underground subway line running from Owings Mills to the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Otherwise, the city primarily gets around by car, bus and light rail.

the point is that the sandwich chain serves pretty much everyone… unlike, too often, public transit.
