Speaking of an "ozone smell" brought back some memories. Back when I was little the subway had a distinct odor which I cannot detect today. It was strongest the closer you got to the tracks. It's like nothing I've ever smelled before or since. I had assumed it was just the regular odor which my brain became accustomed to when I started riding the subway every day back in the mid-80's. I wonder what it was...
