I recently found a fascinating project that examined which rail stations around the world were most stressful. Obviously commuters have different issues with the stations that they need to access on a regular basis than travelers, but there’s always some overlap. For example, I absolutely agree that Keleti Station is the most stressful transit hub in Budapest.
These graphics come from fleetlogging.com. Check out the site for looks at stations all around the world. Here’s what the creators have to say about their project:
“We compiled a list of major overground stations in each country and a list of all metro stations for London, NYC, and Sydney Metros. Then we found stations on Google Maps and extracted reviews using Google API guide. We usedTensiStrength (an academic tool that measures the stress levels of text) to measure the percentage of stressed reviews for each station.”
