This place is amazing! Even though it's falling apart. Everything is something different, walls are cover in moss, tiles from the floors are popping out.
I shine my flash light around the darkness when something caught my eye as something reflected my light. I walk over towards it. It seemed to be metal but most of it is rusted or dented. I soon realized it was the sub train. It does not even look like a train, more like a bullet. It was hard to make out from the darkness, it look shorter than a usual train, but from what I can remember, the reason it got shut down was not only because of new L train but the sub was not capable to hold a lot of people. But something this short doesn't make sense, like a car looks like it can only hold 10-15 people wile the L train car can hold over 25 people. And this sub train only has 3 cars while the L has like 5. Maybe this train was used for illegal trade of alcohol to local pubs? Because of alcohol band sometime in the 1900, I don't care for the date that much. But that may be understandable for the reason it was shut down, after the band has been lifted that had no use for the train.
As I'm at the edge of the platform. I see the train has sunken to the ground; the doors don't level out with the platform, and there is water all around it. The water was dark green and I can't see anything beneath. Great.
I look left to see the rest of the train. Weird how the train stopped here. I always thought it would have been in further into the tunnel.
the doors were all closed and with old age, probably rusted shut. SoI don't waste any time with trying to open them. The Windows where covered in dirt and rust that came off the top of the medal above it. I walk down the train and see a window that is cracked a bit. These cars look that they are air tight. I look around to what is laying around that I could use to break the window. Not a couple feet from the window is a pile of brick's. That should do. I walk over and pick one up. I put my flashlight on the ground and get into my stance. I hurl the brick at the window, The crack spread to where I threw the brick. I pick another one up and threw it at the glass like I did before as the crack gets bigger. I keep throwing brick's and the glass keep breaking. Im a frecken suck at throwing stuff and it took me throwing bricks to realized it. I pick up the last brick and threw it as hard as I can towards the corner of the window. With luck it finally broke. Out of breath and relief I bent down and pick up my flash light and walk over the window. I pick up a piece of brick from the ground. I get the window and hit the window with the brick. To make a bigger opening and so I don't hurt my hands as much. One minute later, I have my opening. The window was lower so I was able to get in with ease.
The inside if the train was like as if it where a time capasal. Everything was in place. Posters of movies where in great condition. The seats looked as if they have never been sit in. Why is everything so nice? I mean it's pubic transportation. Everything looked in great condition again, very weird. I take out my phone and switched it to the Camera. I take a couple pictures of the interior. I have to remember to take a couple pictures of the outside of the train too. I put my phone away and I start looking under the seats. I open the poster frames and take the poster. I turned over the posters for dates or companies that were not shown on the front. The first poster was a store advertisement, it was in black and white. Figures. The title was... Well I really didn't care. The back of the poster was too faded to see the date. I tossed it. It was no help. All the other posters where no help either. This sucks. They have no date and no real evidence that they existed. All this advertisement don't even make any sense. Most of it just gives you a number. I know those numbers no longer have service since they are very shot numbers.
I stand up and start making my way up through the train. As I get to the door that separates the cars. I pulled on the Handel hard. It open. I am frustrated, I came here for nothing, all the cars where the same. Nothing but useless numbers. I get to the control room. Nothing really special. Like the rest of systems back then train. It look as it has not been touched by age. There are many levers that do different things, cords that hang loss from the controls', prolly been cut like others when they are out of service panel. There was a seat in the middle of all of this, overlooking everything, the panel and the track. I let out an exhausted breath and roll my eyes. I walk over to the seat and sit down. I put my figure tips on my temple
"Great." I said, out loud to no one. "This is just great." I look up and look around, the window not that bad, I can at lease see threw it.
I put my feet on the control panel and relax, might as well enjoy it while I'm here. I put my light down and I can see the emergency lights, well... the ones that survived. And it is quite a view, I take out my phone and take a picture. As I look over it something grabs my attention, a yellow light shining straight towards me. I look up and se the light... no. Lights? I'm not alone down here.
