What's going on?

I was walking on the platform of Metro North at Grand Central Station yesterday.

I saw it.

The word " THELONIUS MONK" is on the side of one of the car !!

What's this?

As you know Thelonius Monk is one of the greatest pianist of American jazz.

I have googled about this today and found many other names on cars of Metro North and any of them were so interesting.

For instance, there are name of Storm King,Half Moon,Tear of the cloud ,Clearwater, The Mahican, Working Class Hero and more. By the way, My favorite is the "Working Class Hero".

I should be more careful to find out Duke Ellington's name on the "A" train every time when I use subway.

They should have his name on the "A" train, right ?
