gollark: We don't really get those here.
gollark: It's not called a subway locally.
gollark: On the plus side, if exams are really cancelled, I won't have to do English Literature/Language exams, which I hate so very much.
gollark: Oh, and my city's subway system is running a reduced service, but for some reason the train network is running exactly the same as usual with probably a fifth of the usual passengers on my line.
