Rochester, New York, my semi-hometown (I grew up about 40 min's away, but went to college there and if anyone asks I say I'm from there because if I say I'm from Newark they think I mean New Jersey... which I don't), had a subway? Apparently so. I hadn't a clue.
Rochester was the smallest U.S. city to ever have a subway. I guess there was a time when people needed to gget to downtown, when it wasn't the ghost-town it is today. They mostly stopped using the system in 1956, though it was still used for the transportation of goods (such as newspapers) through the mid-70's. These days it's pretty much hobo-central.
And now there's talk of filling the thing in with dirt. Because that's how Rochester always deals with possibly cool landmarks, really. Gotta love the brains running that town.
Anyway, why haven't I made a horror film in them tunnels? Where's my brain???
