Great set. It's hard to make slabs of gray concrete seem interesting, but you managed to go above and beyond.

Just out of curiosity, what type of place was it? Under-construction storm drain or something?

The Antwerp Pre metro is a network, consisting of lines 2, 3, 5, 6 and 15 of the Antwerp tram system. It is a 1000 mm rail gauge system, which runs underground in the city centre and further out on surface lines, which are separated from motor traffic. It is intended eventually to evolve into a full metro.

It was planned at the beginning of the 1970s to build a completely underground network with a length by 15 km and 22 stations. However, due to financial difficulties only 11 stations have been built.

In the original plan a route was proposed from the south-western suburbs via Opera and Astrid to then eastern suburbs. Some of this line was built but construction stopped in the 1980s due to lack of funds.

About 50% of the subway tunnels underneath Antwerp have never been used. Due to some financial difficulties (federal money stopped flowing to the subway. Antwerp, or Vlaanderen had to pay for it themselves) the project was put on hold. We are talking 1980 - 1986. Two guys kept on maintaining the subwaytunnels for over 20 years.

Soon (2010), construction will start again so they can make use of the lost tunnels starting 2011.
