Usually they are not. They play the notes as written in their printed parts. Starting in the 20th century some composers specifically ask for improvisation within certain set parameters, such as a specified number of measures, or a list of short motives the performer can play in whatever order s/he wants. Such moments of improvisation are always designated in the printed parts. Complete freedom to improvise is very rare.

What is the history of the New York subway musicians?

I've been writing a paper on it for my university writing class at Columbia, and I've found a lot of interesting information about the formation of the Music Under New York program (it started in 1985). As for before 1985, I don't really know. Supposedly they were "prohibited" by the MTA, but they were still there. Now there are "permitted" musicians, and technically if a subway musician is any good, it would be most likely that they have a permit.
