Overview

"""When I get home, I say, thank God I made it."" Anonymous subway rider - Bronx, New York, 1979. In the early 1980s crime was rampant in New York City, especially in the dirty, dark, grimy subway. New Yorkers forced to ride the trains to work spent as little time as possible in the underground world, and said prayers of thanks every day when they made it home safely. Imagine having to ride in those subterranean metal containers for eight or more hours every day. The second installment in the series tells the story of five young New Yorkers who became police officers. They came from diverse backgrounds with diverse reasons for choosing a police career. They wanted to make a difference. They wanted to serve the people - they wanted to solve crimes - they wanted to make the subway safe. They ended up hanging on tightly to a handrail as they rode subway trains back and forth for eight hours every night. In other words, they ended up right in the middle of Hairbag Nation!"
