In this bilingual book, Robert Schwandl presents every means of urban rail transport, giving an overview of the respective history of each system and the vehicles used. At the end of the book, the reader will fi nd detailed maps in the form of an atlas of the entire New York Metropolitan Area, which is home to some 20 million people.
