Abandoned T tunnels

Not Arlington. Up-and-over in the lobby has always been the way to switch sides there. Including on the Berkeley St. side.

Boylston had an underpass til the mid-70's when they had to fill it in to support weight of the new LRV's, and Symphony has an claustrophobic and inadequate-for-reuse sealed underpass closed way back in the MTA era after less than 20 years of use.

F-line -- thanks for correcting the record

Boylston used to be a really big deal. Note all the staircases, access tunnel to the Little Building (!) on the NB platform and the underpass.
