Transformed Train Station

It seems as though everyone has an opinion about cities. Some love them; some don't. Some avoid cities as much as possible. One man hated cities so much that, when driving in a city, he turned left when told to turn right. City lovers have their favorites. In a television show New Yorkers were glad to return home after a visit to Los Angeles.
Country folk tend to think of city people as being aloof, perhaps because city people tend to keep to themselves. City dwellers have learned (sometimes the hard way) that safety means not trusting strangers. These people come from very different worlds.
Among the things large cities have in common is train stations. Mass and rapid transportation are necessary in cities. Television and movies let everyone see subway stations and packed train cars. We all know that thousands of people need mass transit to get to work each day.
Train stations, like cities in general, are not known for their friendliness. They are places people endure so that they can get where they want to go. Strangers scarcely speak to each other, answering only if they must.
On occasion the totally unexpected happens. In this case, a train station is transformed into a special place. Strangers begin interacting with each other. Thankfully, someone caught it on video. Give the quality, I would speculate that video recording was part of the plan.
What could possibly change a train station into a choreographed dance performance? Click the link and experience the heartwarming video Yahoo posted:
