@JaredBusch My dad used to work for Sumitomo and he got sent to Japan a couple of times for training. He is 6"6' and told stories like this where things just were not sized for larger people.

Meh, that is the only station I know of with a passage like l that. Those are just supports running parallel to the flow of traffic. You have to intentionally try to have a need to go under them.

We set up a home school tour of the Genesee coal power generation plant that's not too far down the highway from us.

The newest generation system was set up be a Japanese firm whose name slips my mind at the moment. When looking into the service tunnels I commented on their size and the fellow I was chatting with laughed and said yeah, some of the taller and/or more filled out guys can have problems getting around in there. Not for the claustrophobic for sure!

What is that named after? I grew up by the Genesee River. We normally associate that name with the Seneca Nation.
