Cincinnati’s Abandoned Subway

published on January 28th, 2007 . by joe

I’ve always loved abandoned buildings and such.

The subway project was scrapped without a single train ever having run. The debt incurred by the project wasn’t fully paid until 1966, at a cost of $13 million–in addition to the lives of several workers. According to someone who e-mailed me, the subway is said to be haunted by the ghosts of the dead workmen. The only thing remotely resembling the paranormal which occurred while we were travelling through the subway happened when we were about a mile in; in the middle of a sentence we both heard a “shhh” sound, like someone shushing us. Creepy, but then again we heard lots of noises coming from traffic overhead.
