Below is the author's own text. We publish it as filed, without edits to wording or spelling.

В вагоне метро жарко. Судя по всему это вагон метрополитена модели 81-717. В воздузаборниках сверху вагона видны некоторые заглушки или фильтры. На фотографиях вагонов в других городах такие элементы отсутствуют. Предполагаю, что это одна из причин высокой температуры внутри вагона. Прошу проинспектировать вагон на наличие препятствий для его охлаждения.

    The metro administration explains that the filters in the upper part of the cars, originally for ventilation, became unusable over time and were covered with foam to prevent rainwater from entering. Currently, ventilation is provided naturally through existing air vents.
