The New York Metropolitan Transportation system, a behemoth that moves 400 million commuters daily, owes its smooth operation to its unsung heroes—the subway workers. These essential workers, through their tireless efforts, ensure that people can reach their destinations. In this episode of The Extra Mile, gain a better understanding of what these essential workers do to get people moving to where they need to go regularly.

The Extra Mile is a docu-style explainer video series that seeks to uncover how the many seemingly impossible things that happen while we travel, often without us ever knowing about it, actually get done. Through unprecedented access and expert interviews with travel, hospitality workers, and local legends, we shine a light on the people who make travel and our favorite cities a one-of-a-kind experience through a human-interest lens.
