Moscow Metro 2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Metro 2 in Moscow, Russia is a purported secret underground metro system which parallels the public Moscow Metro. The system, supposedly built in the time of Stalin and codenamed D-6 by the KGB[1], was apparently built for state security and its existence is officially denied to this day.
The length of Metro 2 is rumored to exceed even that of the main Metro, and it is thought to have 4 lines. It is supposed to connect the Kremlin with the FSB headquarters, the government airport at Vnukovo-2, and an underground town at Ramenki, in addition to other locations of national importance.
In 1994, an urban exploration group, the Diggers of the Underground Planet, apparently stumbled on an entrance to this underground system.
