Every single wheel, motor, brake, axle, wire and door on every subway car gets completely refurbished every six to 12 years at the Coney Island Overhaul Shop in Brooklyn or its sister facility at 207th Street in Manhattan. The work is part of a scheduled maintenance program, introduced in 1989 and designed to prevent breakdowns before they occur. The system works much like a scheduled tuneup on an automobile. Trains roll into the facilities, where they are disassembled, reconditioned to near-factory specifications, and then sent back out into a railroad that functions as New York’s vascular system, pumping more than a billion riders across 345 million miles each year, 24 hours a day, every day.
Locations: Coney, Brooklyn, Manhattan
For over a decade, photographer Christopher Payne has been documenting people, processes and products at U.S. factories. A former architect, Payne brings an eye for structure and beauty to work on every scale from medicine vials to airplane hangars. Some of Payne’s industrial photographs were made on assignment, but more often he simply emails a factory and asks to take pictures. What matters to him isn’t the prestige or perceived value of the finished product but the complex activities behind it. He has photographed at Tesla , John Deere and Whirlpool, in factories so vast that one cannot see from end to end, and also at small specialty hardware makers with no public-facing storefronts.

A DoorDash sign is pictured on a restaurant on the day they hold their IPO in New York, December 9, 2020. Shares of DoorDash jumped as much as 6% in extended trading Thursday after the food delivery company reported better-than-expected sales for the fourth quarter and gave upbeat guidance for the current period. For the current quarter, DoorDash said it expects marketplace gross order volume to be between $15.1 billion and $15.5 billion. DoorDash said in the quarterly earnings report that its president and COO Christopher Payne will retire from the company. Payne will be succeeded by DoorDash CFO Prabir Adarkar, who will take over the COO role effective March 1.
