Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Karikatur über den als lausig empfundenen Service bei der ersten New Yorker U-Bahn.
Der Zug ist als missmutiges Monstrum gezeichnet, der argwöhnisch auf die verärgerte Kundschaft schaut. Auf ihm ist zu lesen „Interborough Rattled Transit“, „Interborough-Schepperbahn“ und „Trains run at the CO's CONVENIENCE“, „Züge fahren nach Belieben des Chefs“. Das Schild auf dem Bahnsteig kündigt an, die Fahrzeit nach Harlem betrüge „drei Stunden“.
English: Political cartoon that ran in the New York Herald on March 24, 1905 regarding lousy service of the Interborough Rapid Transit (integrated into the New York City Subway in 1940). The subway car is labeled "Interborough Rattled Transit" with a sign that states "Trains run at the Co.'s convenience". Above the waiting patrons is a sign that reads "Three hours to Harlem".
Français : Caricature sur le service misérable dans « l'Interborough Rattled Transit », le « chemin de ferraille métropolitain » ou les trains « run at the CO's CONVENIENCE », sont mets en service quand le monsieur le chef le fait à sa tête.
