The camera platform was on the front of a New York subway train following another train on the same track. Lighting is provided by a specially constructed work car on a parallel track. At the time of filming, the subway was only seven months old, having opened on October 27, 1904. The ride begins at 14th Street (Union Square) following the route of today's east side IRT, and ends at the old Grand Central Station, built by Cornelius Vanderbilt in 1869. The Grand Central Station in use today was not completed until 1913.

""The camera platform was on the front of a New York subway train. The camera train is behind a train on the same track, and the film is lighted by a work car on the opposite track. As the trains progress through the subway, the film records a train operator's view of the subway during operating hours: starts, stops, platforms, people getting on, and people getting off. This documentary was printed by AM & B together with a Rube in the Subway and was released as a comedy by them in 1905"--Early motion pictures / Kemp R. Niver."@en
