Fwd: FW: WJC E-Gram - Grand Central Terminal Photographs

[NW Mailing List]

Several years ago, during an NRHS Convention, took the complete Grand 
Central tour.  Was most impressed by the original power plant on the 
lowest level.  The AC to DC converters are out of service; but all 
equipment still there (probably no convenient way to remove it).  Room 
was uncomfortably hot - must have been hell when the converters were in 
use.  Later, located and printed track plans for the station and 
throat.  How fortunate that GCT has been preserved, avoiding the fate 
of Penn Station.
