I'd like to see the photos.  Thanks.  

And does anybody have a map showing the tunnels?

I've been in NYC since last week, and returned tonight.

I photographed the excavation for the U.S. Steel Bldg.over a six month
period in 1968 when the two tunnels (PRR Panhandle line, and the 1800's
canal tunnel) were exposed.  I submitted several of these photos - and other
historical information - to the Tribune-Review, but haven't see the
article(s) yet.

I can post some of the photos to the PRC list if anyone's interested.
