V2 Rocket Tunnels, Paris

[BrickMan]

looks like it had wire wheels too, from teh remains of the front left hub


defo a tipper you can see that from th pic, although I'm amazed even as much of it survives as what you can see there, would have thought the sheet/tin metal of the bulkhead would have dissolved in the damp + humid atomspher you get in tehese places

Back on track slightly - its probably not strictly correct to say that the tunnels were built by the Germans. They were most lilkley built by the Todt Organisation who used slave labour from all over occupied Europe.

Nice post, how did you find the locals, were they happy to accomodate you, or were they difficult to convince that you were genuine?

Thanks for posting.

Now this is awesome, love it, those tunnels look huge. This is a place I would love to get the chance to see. Love the lighting, and the Citroen.

Excellent find Zero, and excellent pics.

Cheers,

You accommodate the "locals" when they come to you and they return the favour out of kindness, I didnt just cruise over and go "Hai guys lets bust some shit" did i
