I think this feature deserves a separate entry.

The G train is too short for the size of its platforms, so to make sure you get on the train, you have to walk to the middle of the platform.

Of course, this causes problems when you are entering the station as you see a train come, and you have to sprint to make it. People look on with sympathy, pity, or mockery as you try to make that train.

I once did a successful G train sprint in oversized Ugg boots. I was so proud :)
