FORT WORTH -- Forty-two feet below street level in downtown Fort Worth is a forgotten tunnel.

The passageway once housed a tiny but extremely popular transit system. From 1963 to 2002, the M&O Subway ferried shoppers from a remote parking lot on the north end of downtown to Leonards Department Store and later the Tandy Center mall at RadioShack's headquarters.

But the tunnel has been nearly untouched in the 13 years since the subway was shut down. Today, one entrance is buried under the Tarrant County College Trinity River Campus, and the other end is secured by a padlocked chain-link fence that stretches across an archway in a limited-access high-rise office at 300 Throckmorton St.
