Type Family On The Go

These are the Classifications of Type I found while riding on the train.

This ā€œMercedes Benzā€ ad displays a Modern typeface in the logo. There are thick and thin strokes in the capital lettering and smooth serifs.

The ā€œDo not lean on doorā€ sign that is located on every train door is in a simple Sans Serif typeface I believe to be Helvetica similar to other subway type.

The Grand Central sign is done in a Transitional typeface where the strokes ease into the serifs.

The Old Style typeface I found was in a sign on the train. The ā€œCapital Programā€ type is done in a simple serif, which is kind of blocky like Old Style fonts
