    Brooklyn Tunnel Tour anyone?

    While flying to ORD this morning there was an article in American Way on the Atlantic Ave Subway tunnel in Brooklyn. They seem to offer tours of the old tunnel that are scheduled monthly. While I can't make the next one....would you know it..I'm traveling ;) , but I'd love to do this! Who's interested? Perhaps the June or July tour? Below is the link to the tour. Looks rather fascinating.

    Very Cool, I have seen this but did not know they were doing normal tours. I hope a Thursday is possible in the future! :borat:

    might just go and do that...
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Looks interesting. Its funny with since my departure from modding Anet, I've been getting back into the LIRR. There is a fascinating history of hte railroad.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.
