Visiting the subway:
-Do not enter the subway illegally! You can get in a lot of trouble for this
-CincinnatiAdvanced hosted
the tour I went on, but I think there are a few other organizations.
-It took me over a year to get tickets. Sign up on the waiting list now.
-Bring a good flashlight!
-If you plan to take pictures, use a good external flash. I didnt do this,
I just used my digital camera's flash.
As you can see in the images, it didnt turn out too well toward far distances
-The tunnel isnt that dirty, but wear some old shoes and jeans
-When your in the station, dont fall off on to the track! The drop off is
4-6ft so you would break a few bones!
-I have heard
it was hunted. It was a little creepy down there and fairly dangerous because
there is
drop offs to the track and no light
but I saw nothing out of the ordinary. And relax those "lights"
are just
other people's flashlight.
