I’d say there are still a few dozen of these clocks still in use in the subways, especially on the BMT and IND where countdown clocks have not been installed (and won’t be for quite a few years). I wish I had a better view of the clockface so I could see if the manufacturer’s name was there. This one can be found in the Chambers of Horror — the BMT Chambers Street station under City Hall, featuring an abandoned platform that hasn’t seen so much as one broom in decades.
