@adelgado75 Do you mean the one with the buses travelling through tunnels? That is Harvard, home of the famous university.

The Harvard Bus Tunnel was originally used by streetcars but now buses and trackless trolleys. Harvard station is also served by the Red line subway.

Excellent and classic, to further Sieman700s point everything looking north(towards the h'way) from the north station platform is gone! The bldgs on the right, the h'way(part of the infamous big dig) The Boston Garden arena on the left and the el and station itself are now underground.

Those people just walking in front of the buses! If they tried that in Chicago they would be referred to as "the deceased!"
