@mattblaze@federate.social I’ve been fascinated by these kinds of buildings and tunnels underneath them since I was a kid. Probably it was that George Martin Beauty and the Beast TV show that started that. Or Lex Luthor’s subway accessed lair. I wish Presidents would go back to travelling by (private) rail car.

@mattblaze@federate.social presumeably the electromechanical converters are immune to EMP. Are the solid-state rectifiers? Are there control systems that monitor them that might be vulnerable? Just thinking aloud for reasons to keep the older converters.
