Google Wraps a NYC Subway Train for Google Maps

google mapsBack in September Google launched Google Maps with NYC public transportation and subway directions. They have been heavily advertising the new option, even grabbing a special place on the MTA home page (something I am not sure if HopStop ever received).

Today I found the following images of a "wrapped" Times Square shuttle train via SubChat. I thought the little AIM guy was dead... guess not! The shuttle is running a variety of wrapped cars as a test to see if they will go systemwide to help generate more revenue for the MTA.

Car 1953 pushes the entire url complete with http://!

Car 1946 shows off the markers

Some Subchatters are wondering what's going on in the red circle. Apparently parts of the AIM people are "behind" the windows...

More AIM people
