Just when you thought riding the NYC Subways couldn't get any stranger... do any of the Dims folks have Strange but true Mass Transit tales to share from other areas....

Rat Climbs Up Sleeping Subway Riders Leg, Onto Face
NEW YORK (1010 WINS) A video posted on YouTube Wednesday of a rat running loose on a downtown Number 4 subway car in Brooklyn, is giving New Yorkers the creeps!
In the video (posted below), the rat runs across the aisle and climbs up onto seats, before eventually crawling up the leg of a sleeping man and onto his face
I was sitting there listening to my iPod and I heard a woman scream, Jeffrey Ford, who recorded the video, told 1010 WINS. When I looked up I didnt know what happened but I saw a rat on the floor.
I just reached straight for the camera. Ive never seen anything like that before in my life, and I knew I had to document it, he said.
Even though it was Tuesday at 2 a.m., Ford said the train was packed with people before the rat made its way into the subway car. The rat attack happened between Franklin and Utica Avenues.
Once people saw the rat a lot of people got off at the next stop, a couple of people went to the next car, Ford said. The ones who stayed were the brave souls.
The MTA has said no comment. But YOU can! Let us know what you think. Have you had a subway rat encounter before? Know anyone who has? Share your thoughts below.
Our advice: Stay awake on the train!
