The place lays quiet and broken now, but you can still feel the energy and vibrations that carried through these platforms. The trains lay dormant and dead on the tracks, imprisoned by the rails and concrete and doomed to run no more.
Graffiti and cracks replace the adverts and information boards that once covered the walls, like wrinkles and scars spreading across this face of transportation. You could once shoulder through crowds and take a train to anywhere and make a new start, but the only thing starting here now are the weeds and rats thriving in the dark and dusty tomb.

Welcome to the Abandoned Subway Station everyone! Thanks for that classy intro maestro SlappinFace, your words set the tone of what's to come as always.
Rather than ramble on about my journey with this one, I have included a time-lapse video showing you my map design, planning and painting process. Thankfully, I did not forget to hit the record button before starting this piece.

Map Variants




Vacant Train Tracks
This variant is devoid of the train, for those of you who just want to run with a more deadly combat scenario with a lot less cover.
Train Interior
This variant provides an interior view of the train cars and is supposed to be used in conjunction with the next set of variants.
Train Roof Covers (Left, Mid, Right)
Three .PNG files (with transparency) of the roofs of the train cars are provided. These are to be stacked as layers on top of the "Train Interior" variant as "canopy layers" via your favorite virtual tabletop software (Roll20, Foundry VTT, Fantasy Grounds etc).

2024-02-26 22:13:35 +0000 UTCI’m slowly building up a post apocalyptic hexcrawl and pretty much all the encounters are based off your maps, my most recent addition is an abandoned subway. Keep up the excellent work.

2024-02-25 05:35:49 +0000 UTCJust finished a mission for my Cyberpunk Red gonks that this would have been perfect for! But seeing these, I already have another use. :-) Thanks as always for making these fantastic maps. I really appreciate the work that you do.

2024-02-25 03:13:07 +0000 UTCWhich reminds me, this map can be tied narratively to my previous map - sewer canals.

2024-02-24 20:18:51 +0000 UTCMy current session is an abandoned city with a flooded subway. This will be perfect.

2024-02-24 16:00:39 +0000 UTCOkay, you actually caught me asleep this time. I love the how the map feels like it's still in the early stages of deteriorating, with nature clearly starting to reclaim it. Amazing job as always Frag!
