Moving Mural at DeKalb Tunnel (Approaching Manhattan Bridge)

This is a neat little mural painted on a lighted wall that is visible through slats in the wall in front of it. As the train moves, the slats create a kinescopic effect -- a little animated movie to entertain passengers on their way to Manhattan.

Thanks for posting, I've been meaning to get something of this for my blog. It's very cool to see and each time I do it brings a smile.

@kenpierce Glad you like it! I took the video many times... this was the only one where the train was going at a decent speed for most of it -- though it sped up a bit too much at the end to enjoy the mural.

@TandavaShakti I never noticed that mural before. Then again, I never rode on the Subway train before. Thanks for uploading this. I liked seeing that.
