Im also surprised by how something like this tunnel from NY to London could have remained unknown to the wider public. I would assume that workers sign confidentiality agreements.


From the article it says
the Telectroscopes (designed by artist and inventor Paul St George) are connected not by a tunnel but by fiber optic cabling, and an HD camera and projector on either end provide live streaming video.

Too neat !


The FDR car

Over the weekend we had a chance to visit the long-abandoned Waldorf-Astoria train platform, which allowed VIPs to enter the hotel in a more private manner—most famously it was used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, possibly to hide the fact that he was in a wheelchair suffering from polio. The mysterious track, known as Track 61, still houses the train car and private elevator, which were both large enough for FDR's armor-plated Pierce Arrow car. Legend has it that the car would drive off the train, onto the platform and straight into the elevator, which would lead to the hotel's garage. Trainjotting has some more history regarding the platform, known as Track 61, and notes that the quest for it "has become a holy grail for many urban explorers."

I guess this goes hand in hand with the rumors of a whole network if tunnels and underground cities connected coast to coast... I have no doubt there it something to it but how much is anyone's guess..

I've been to the Lower Bay station twice. Once about 20 years ago, and the second time was around 2007 or so.

The first time I went I was doing something illegal (ie. trespassing) and mind-bogglingly stupid (ie. running down a live subway line). This is a really stupid thing to do, and I don't advise it. There's a really good chance of getting killed, and no joke. Lower Bay as a station might be closed, but the line itself is still live and is used to shunt trains and maintenance cars - and they don't operate on any schedule that the general public would be aware of. Seriously, don't do this.

The second time it was open to the public for Doors Open Toronto, and I happened to be in town. If you're really keen to see that part of Toronto, wait for them to run that again. You're really not missing much, in any case. It's a subway platform. There's nothing really special about it, other than being a permanent monument to bad transit planning.

It's a very well documented place - do a google image search on "Lower Bay Toronto", and do the same on youtube. Like 99.999999% of all abandoned places, when you get right down to it - it's really a dull, uninteresting location and the only point of going is bragging rights.

To the OP - you suggest that his station is part of some network serving the elite.

My question to you: What possible reason would you have for thinking that? There's no benefit to using that station, which is why it was abandoned.

I played in tunnels a lot as a kid. Not sure what they were, made of cement. They might have been 10 feet or more in diameter. They weren't secretive anyways.


... Would most of these tunnels be found where there is the most rock or caves ? Like in the Rockies, Grand Canyon regions.

I have no idea if there is anything in this but, leading on from this post on Quake Watch 2012 it was suggested that any explosions in a straight line could possibly be because of tunnelling. In the SF area I then found the details you can see here.

I have no idea if this means anything and I have not looked at the time sequence to see if these are progressive but it certainly does seem odd that they are called explosions in the ANSS catalogue and they are in a long line and are all at 100 metres depth.

Subsequently I looked to see if there was any explosions between Area 51 and Denver International Airport, but I could find nothing? (Maybe the details were removed?) This post details my (lack) of any findings.
