Because 24 hour train service is a massive convince that reduces car dependence and drunk driving.

Why does Shanghai metro shut down at 11pm? So early. Impossible to have a fun night out.

In nyc they have multiple tunnels for the same line, so one can be maintained while the other is active. Cities that shut down their metro do their maintenance then, because their lines don’t have a backup track.
