Sex “on” the train

Recommended Posts

From The Thaiger

A daring and reckless display by two men atop a New York City subway train has become the talk of the online world. The pair engaged in explicit acts in broad daylight, not only shocking onlookers but also creating a serious safety concern.

This incident, caught on camera, shows the two individuals performing the dangerous act above the Van Wyck subway while a third person watched from the subway car’s roof edge.

The footage reveals the two men on the subway roof as the train crosses an elevated section above the subway. In a brazen act of public indecency, one of the men is seen with his trousers down, clinging to the other with both hands. The second image, taken from a wider angle, captures the two engaged in sexual activity, with the observer sitting on the edge of the train’s roof, looking on. The identities of the individuals involved remain unknown.

If I'm right there are no overhaad lines in this station but many people don't know this I think: if you're close to an overhead line, you can be electrocuted, even when you don't touch the overhead lines.

Without touching the overhead wire?

There seems to be some confusion about overheard wires and this incident 

While just about all of the subway lines in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx are underground, much of those in the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens are above ground. Trains get their power through a third (conductor) rail and not overhead power lines.

Yes, if you get close enough to trigger a flashover. Also, it's not just the wire, some of the metalwork on top of the train may also be at the supply voltage, and depending on the system you could be dealing with anything up to 25 kilovolts.

Best to wear rubber soled shoes then! And rubber gloves, dual purpose!

Once again, there is NO wire ABOVE  trains in the New York subway system.

All power is generated by the "third rail" that runs alongside the tracks -- BELOW every train. 

The Third Rail: What is the Third Rail?

Good point! And correct, so far as the Subway is concerned. Sex underneath the train would be more challenging!

I haven't suggested otherwise. I was replying to @Keithambrose's question "Without touching the overhead wire? " which referred to @Thomas_88's statement "if you're close to an overhead line, you can be electrocuted, even when you don't touch the overhead lines."  which is true.

What did you mean by "some of the metalwork on top of the train may also be at the supply voltage, and depending on the system you could be dealing with anything up to 25 kilovolts."

Were you talking about only those train systems (not the NYC subway) that receive all power from overhead cables?
