Ride-Along
Ride the line with him
Pick any train in the city and watch it run, stop by stop. Each station lights up as the train pulls in — and where Antoine has something to say about a stop, he says it.

Grand Central-42 St★Antoine’s favorite
Manhattan
Grand Central Terminal — Opened in 1913. The green ceiling in the main concourse is a map of the winter night sky — painted backwards, which nobody has ever fixed. Find the Whispering Gallery outside the Oyster Bar: speak into a corner and someone across the arch hears you.

Times Sq-42 St
