I've just got home, and there has in the last hour been an explosion at 42nd St and Lexington Ave. Right next to Grand Central.
There is apparently smoke billing out of the subway. Right now, I can hear some sirens etc coming uptown. It sounds like everything is OK. Apparently only one guy was injured.
And terrorism it ain't.
However, I work about 10 minutes north of the explosion. To get home each evening, I can either catch the 6 subway downtown through the explosion site. Or I catch a bus downtown. As I rule, I catch the bus.
But if I had caught the subway today, I would have been right in the middle of it.
Cool.
I wonder what’s happening there right now.
In a few minutes, I'll be getting back into the subway for a meeting at 34th St. So I'll let you know. Lets hope that there aren't any more. Really not that keen to be stuck in a subway underground tonight…
Famous last words…
