Metro is like a separate city with its own streets and intersections, open areas and forbidden zones. We descend there every day - and we know almost nothing about it. How do new trains enter the depot? How are tunnels...
laid under rivers and residential areas? Where do legends about ghost stations come from? This book is your guide to the underground universe. You will learn how the metro was created and what it might become in the future, what happens in the underground at night and what is behind the closed doors of the depot. You will understand how safety is ensured in transit and what to do in emergencies - for example, in case of a fall onto the tracks. The book will tell you about the engineering achievements of metro builders and the role that the metro plays in modern urban culture. In the book, you will find many color photographs, including those taken in the closed areas of the metro, and illustrative diagrams. Your guides will be Ksenia Kiseleva and Yegor Timoshenko, creators of the project 'Metro NN'. For many years, they have been exploring the metro from the inside: from design archives to night tunnels and closed zones.
