Rearview of the Denver International Airport train tunnel

Yet another view of the underground train tunnel at Denver International Airport. This time I tried to capture those funny little spinner things they installed on the walls (for fun) but can't seem 'em too clearly here...

Did not their was an Airport with it's own subway system.

@SPS148669

I suspect there are other airports with similar systems but I don't know for sure...

[SPS148669]

@zeekzilch

There is but other airports have small elevated trains and this is the first underground airport rapid transit I seen. Underground sybway systems are expensive to build which is why they are rare for airport use..

@SPS148669

Okay, that makes sense! I was in Denver at the time they built the airport and it was a big, expensive

undertaking so I'm sure the subway added to the costs.

I'm pretty sure I remember the SeaTac airport having one when I lived near there.
