the metro



D.C. after everyone went home. Red Line. Forest Glen.

From the Washington Post:
It is the deepest station in the Metro system, located 21 stories below street level. Passengers travel between the platform and the street in one of six high-speed elevators. A one-way trip takes less than 20 seconds.

Hahaha ... I was never a Star Trek fan, but you're totally right.

Less than 20 seconds??? What express metro were you riding?

Elie said...

Haha, no no no. The elevator ride takes 20 seconds to go 21 stories, not the Metro ride ;-)
