Every so often the MTA runs vintage “Nostalgia Trains” in the New York subway for special occasions. Last month the Levy Family organized a old-timey tea party on one of those trains, effectively completing the “turn back the clock” atmosphere.

Some urban pranksters out in San Francisco recently installed swings on a few BART train cars. The resulting photos are awesome.

Caroline Woolard did a project like this in New York back in 2006. Check out her video:
